Water footprint assessment of water supply treatment process : a case study of Peramu water treatment plant

The instability changes of socio economic as well as monsoonal changes have long been tortured the water resource management system. Until to this date, water scarcity still being as the main issues globally. In Malaysia, several water shortages problems might be created from several factors. In thi...
