Rapid population growth, depletion of freshwater resources, and uncertainties associated with the climate change have placed unprecedented stress on water supplies in urban centres. Development of resilience in water management in urban centres requires an integrated approach that considers all sources of water beyond those considered traditionally. Such integrated approach must also include non-conventional, small-scale or decentralized approaches and their integration into existing urban water infrastructure. A innovative mix of conventional and alternative water, wastewater and stormwater management approaches must be implemented within an integrated management framework. Water reuse has already been implemented in many countries facing sever water shortages. However, its wide-scale implementation is facing a number of challenges. The most significant challenge is the problems associated with inclusion of water reuse technologies, many of which are alternative and decentralized in nature, into an existing centralized infrastructure.

人口的迅速增长、淡水资源的枯竭以及与气候变化有关的不确定性给城市中心的供水带来了前所未有的压力。发展城市中心水资源管理的复原力需要采取综合办法，考虑到传统上所考虑的水源以外的所有水源。这种综合办法还必须包括非常规、小规模或分散的办法，并将其纳入现有的城市供水基础设施。必须在一个综合管理框架内，采用一种创新的水、废水和雨水管理办法，将传统办法和替代办法结合起来。许多面临严重缺水的国家已经实施了水的再利用。然而，其大规模实施面临着许多挑战。最大的挑战是将水再利用技术纳入现有的中央基础设施所涉及的问题，其中许多技术是替代性的和分散性的。
