Trends and development goals of the water supply and wastewater disposal branch against the backdrop of global challenges (for discussion)

Summary

The work objective is studying the situation in the world and in the Russian Federation in the field of water supply and wastewater disposal while setting specific tasks to correct the development trend. The overall state of the water supply and wastewater industry was examined through critical analysis. The components of the global challenges shaping the current situation in the industry have been identified and systematized: environmental, social, demographic, medical, hygienic, epidemiological, criminal, reliability, technological, military, political, etc. Therein, the provisions of the «Clean Water» Federal Project  were taken into account within the framework of the «Housing and Urban Environment» National Project, the data from the 2021 State Report of the top sanitary official of the Russian Federation, Order of the RF Government of July 8, 2015 No. 1316-r (as amended on May 10 2019) «On approval of the list of pollutants subject to the state regulatory measures in the field of the environmental protection», as well as the data of the Research Institute of Human Ecology and Environmental Hygiene named after. A. N. Sysin. The events, situation and consequences regarding the life support facilities in the territories of new regions of the Russian Federation (LPR, DPR, Zaporizhian and Kherson regions) were taken into account. The development trends of the industry are presented with account of the current trends and development prospects. The need to develop water supply sources on a noncentralized basis while providing for backup sources of drinking water supply at vital points, in residential and public buildings is emphasized. Decentralization of water supply based on redundant systems (including self-contained ones) for preparing water at the point of consumption creates the basis for transferring the nation to the consumption of physiologically healthful water.
