What to breathe? Steering microbial electron acceptors for sustainable onsite wastewater treatment
Robust electron acceptors for nitrogen elimination from wastewater integrate emerging redox-driven bioprocesses with thermodynamics and kinetics insights to enable smart and climate-resilient onsite wastewater treatment systems.
Operating high-rate algal ponds as sequencing batch reactors: a novel approach to enhanced wastewater treatment
Sequencing-batch operation of high-rate algal ponds selectively enriches photogranules or filamentous algae, improving solids separation and producing clearer effluent suitable for safe reuse.
Metal organic framework-based materials for water remediation: recent progress, challenges, and future perspectives
Water is integral to humans and other living beings on the planet. Due to its scarcity, water remediation is of prime importance and MOFs are preferable due to unique set of properties.
Sustainable innovation in nanotechnology-based water treatment: aligning climate change adaptation with industrial ecology and CSR goals
This review uniquely links nanotechnology-enabled water treatment with climate adaptation, sustainability frameworks, and corporate responsibility through global case studies.

Paper
Can blue-green infrastructure mitigate waterborne infection risks through recreational activities in densely urbanized waterways?
Combined sewer overflows (CSOs) release pathogens into urban recreational water bodies and pose a threat to water quality, ecosystems, and public health.
An innovative approach towards the selective recovery of Pb(II) and Cd(II): thiol-functionalized TiO2-based magnetic core–shell nanoparticle-loaded hydrogel
Development of a thiol-functionalized TiO2-based magnetic core–shell nanoparticle-loaded hydrogel for the selective recovery of Pb(II) and Cd(II).
About this collection
This issue aims to give a central focus to climate change adaptation for water quality and treatment.
Guest edited by Sarah Dorner (Polytechnique Montréal), Nynke Hofstra (Wageningen University) and Arash Zamyadi (Monash University) this broad collection includes studies on combined impacts of water quality constituents, brownification processes in surface water, sewer overflows, manure runoff, water (re)use/irrigation and methodology development for climate change adaptation assessment for water quality. Trade-offs and synergies in climate change adaptation related to water quality, climate change adaptation policy and governance and development of adaptation or development pathways for water quality are also covered.
