Research on Water Quality, Sanitation and Human Health

Dear Colleagues,

Water is the lifeblood of humanity. However, rapid economic and industrial development and expanding agricultural production have put enormous pressure on global water resources. A wide range of organic, inorganic and biological pollutants have been observed in surface waters and can adversely affect water quality, ecosystems and human health. For instance, water pollution was responsible for 1.4 million premature deaths worldwide in 2019, and 92% of pollution­related deaths occur in low­ and middle­income countries. This Special Issue on water quality, sanitation, and human health aims to provide a unique platform for scientists and engineers to share and present their state-of-the-art research and exchange ideas with the public.

We are pleased to invite you to submit a manuscript to Water for peer review and possible publication in a Special Issue entitled Research on Water Quality, Sanitation and Human Health.
