Using water safely for clean water production in several urban Areas in Vietnam

Abstract

Water is an essential environmental component for people's normal daily lives, and at the same time is one of the important production inputs of economic sectors (agriculture, industry, services). On the other hand, when wastewater is discharged into the environment without treatment, it is a waste. Inefficient use of water and polluted water have greatly affected the supply of raw water as input for water treatment plants in urban areas. The article provides an overview of water sources, current status of water use for the operation of water plants in some urban areas, thereby proposing some solutions to protect water sources to contribute to ensuring safety in clean water supply for the people.

Keywords: Raw water; water pollution; safe water supply plan; water safety.
