  "text": "1.. Projects aiming at developing technologies for drinking water and urban waste water treatment systems, through the use of resource efficient processes for the provision of water services (e.g. aiming to reduce energy consumption for the treatment and management of water, and water losses) and onsite procedures and control processes to diminish or eliminate discharges of emerging pollutants and pathogens as part of wastewater treatment effluents.\n2.. Projects implementing tools (e.g. planning, decentralised systems, risk-based approaches) to ensure the efficient provision of water services that are compliant with the Drinking Water Directive and the Urban Waste Water Directive in areas of low population density.\n3.. Projects aiming at more efficient and effective, innovative solutions and/or treatment options regarding recycled/reclaimed water, developing and demonstrating:\nInnovative concepts for (alternative) water supply, wastewater treatment, reuse and recovery of resources;\nSource control methods and cost-effective on-site technologies for discharges of emerging pollutants and pathogens into the wastewater treatment system;\nWater treatment innovation hubs, in regions that currently lack of appropriate sewer systems and treatment and sanitation facilities, applying smart technologies and decentralised systems with a focus on alternative water sources.\nSystematic approaches to avoid loss of water, energy and resources in industrial production and water and wastewater infrastructure.\nWith respect to waste, the Roadmap for a Resource-Efficient Europe and the 7th EAP aim at reaching the following overall goals by 2020:\nto reduce waste generated;\nto maximise recycling and reuse;\nto limit incineration to non-recyclable materials; and\nto limit landfilling to non-recyclable and non-recoverable waste.\nPriority will be therefore given to the following projects:",
