Abstract One of the most ubiquitous problems affecting people throughout the world is insufficient access to clean water that is essential for meeting basic needs of all living things. Global economy and population make water a limited resource. Additionally, the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic is causing severe stress to society, with direct implications for public health and public water services. Reclaimed water reuse is currently applied in many countries. However, the proportion of water reuse in total wastewater generation is still inadequate. Circular economy concept could generate remarkable synergies for the wide adoption of water reuse as an alternative for water supply. From a circular economy viewpoint, water reuse is a win-win option. This study addresses circular economy for water and its principles, opportunities and applications to water system management.
