Water is an essential feature for modern cities. In an urban setting, water is constantly renewed in a local-scale urban water cycle, different from the hydrological cycle on a global scale, which is heavily impacted by human intervention. A healthy urban water cycle is vital to pursue sustainability in urbanized areas where 54 % of the world’s population lives. However, different challenges associated with the quantity and quality of water are severely threatening urban water sustainability. Thinking as or like an engineer is an approach to development of advanced technologies and innovative designs for addressing the issues and achieving water sustainability and resilience. This presentation will aim to introduce several research threads that I has nurtured, all centered on water (e.g., drinking water, municipal wastewater, stormwater, and industrial wastewater), over the past years.
