Total Water Management
Total Water Management (TWM) is an approach based on a substantially holistic view of the water resources system and principles of sustainability. TWM can be utilized to increase water resources efficiency and enhance overall benefits.
It examines urban water systems in a more interconnected manner, focusing on reducing water demands for fresh water, increasing water recycling and reuse, creating water supply assets from stormwater, matching water quality to water, increasing water recycling and reuse, creating water supply assets from stormwater, matching water quality to end-use needs, and achieving environmental and societal goals through multi-purpose, multi-benefit solutions. While traditional urban water management separates a city’s water resources into the three distinct classes of water, i.e., potable, wastewater, and stormwater, the Parnami pump TWM approach views all water as a resource that undergoes a cycle that can be managed in a fully integrated manner.
