Development of a decision-support system to select nature-based solutions for domestic wastewater treatment

Nature-based solutions are increasingly used in domestic wastewater treatment, because of their potential to remove contaminants and pathogens from water (e.g., stormwater, river water, wastewater) as well as their provided co-benefits, such as mitigation of the heat island effect or enhanced biodiversity. This article outlines a decision-support system created by SNAPP’s Water Sanitation and Nature working group to support this transition.
