今天的水基础设施是基于工业革命的设计的结果，现在与当前的可持续性范例不一致。本研究的目的是发展可持续水基础设施的工程远景。11位作者列出了99条生态设计原则，并将其分为三个主题：(1)人的维度，(2)向自然学习（仿生），(3)与自然融合。仿生学概念进一步分为六个子主题；(1)复杂系统特性，(2)能量来源，(3)规模，(4)质量和能量流，(5)结构和功能，(6)多样性和合作。这些概念对水基础设施设计的影响表明，水基础设施应以更全面的方式概念化，不仅要考虑供水、处理和雨水管理服务，还要将其他供应、调节、文化和支持生态系统服务整合到设计问题中。分散式的整合方法和适应性设计的创新对于发展具有弹性和节能的水基础设施是必要的。
Today's water infrastructures are the outcome of an industrial revolution-based design that are now at odds with the current sustainability paradigm. The goal of this study was to develop a vision for engineering sustainable water infrastructures. A list of 99 ecological design principles was compiled from eleven authors and grouped into three themes: (1) human dimension, (2) learning from nature (biomimicry), and (3) integrating nature. The biomimicry concept was further divided into six sub-themes; (1) complex system properties, (2) energy source, (3) scale, (4) mass and energy flows, (5) structure, and function, and (6) diversity and cooperation. The implications of these concepts on water infrastructure design suggested that water infrastructure should be conceptualized in a more holistic way by not only considering water supply, treatment, and storm water management services, but also integrating into the design problem other provisioning, regulating, cultural, and supporting ecosystem services. A decentralized approach for this integration and innovation in adaptive design are necessary to develop resilient and energy efficient water infrastructures.
