On the other hand, Palma de Mallorca is also a successful example of urban water reuse within an integrated water management framework. Since the end of the nineties, tertiary treated (coagulation, flocculation, sand filtration and gaseous chloride disinfection) water is used for public parks, landscape and golf courses irrigation. About 7 Mm year are currently used, thus saving equal amounts of potable water. This is the most efficient water reuse apphcation in Palma. 

The flows of wastewater originating from the water supply of a community and runoff from precipitation on urban surfaces are typically collected and conveyed for treatment and disposal. The system used for this purpose is called a sewer network or a collection system that consists of individual pipes (sewer lines) and a number of installations, such as inlet structures and pumps, to facilitate collection and transport. The efficient, safe and cost-effective collection and transport of wastewater and urban runoff have been identified as key criteria to be observed. In this context, the word safe means that public health, welfare and environmental protection have high priority. The demand for solutions toward more sustainable water management in the cities is a new challenge. 

It must be realized that urban wastewater management is difficult to cope with in a sustainable way, because the entire idea is to use resources and pollute them In spite of this, the sustainable development of the urban infrastructure must be seriously considered, particularly because the centralized idea behind the urban water cycle, without doubt, will exist for an unknown future.

The primary written exercise is a discussion of the possible reasons that quarrying ceased at this site. These include difficulties with water management, encroachment of urban development, difficulties in meeting product quality specifications, and the more basic issue of a depleted resource. Each of these issues is teased out of the discussions at each stop around the excursion, as was described in the previous section. 

The roots of environmental microbiology also lie in urban waste management and treatment. The field originally focused on monitoring the movement of pathogens and treating them within natural and urban environments to protect municipal water quality and public health. As the world became more urbanized in the late nineteenth century, the incidence of communicable diseases such as typhoid fever and cholera increased. To combat the spread of diseases, cities and communities began to treat water with various filtration and disinfectant methods. For the most part, such approaches to water treatment were instrumental in the elimination of waterborne bacterial diseases in developed countries, and disinfection processes continue to be widely used.
