Urban Water Cycle

The Urban Water Cycle refers to the movement and management of water in urban areas. It encompasses various processes, including the collection of rainwater, its use in homes and businesses, and the treatment of wastewater. Water is sourced from rivers, lakes, or underground, then distributed for consumption. After use, it’s collected, treated, and often released back into the environment. Effective management of this cycle is crucial for sustainable urban development, ensuring clean water supply, protecting ecosystems, and preventing flooding. It highlights the importance of water conservation and infrastructure in densely populated areas.
