Wasser und Abfall

Wasser und Abfall (German for "Water and Waste") is a German-language technical journal published by the Bund der Ingenieure für Wasserwirtschaft, Abfallwirtschaft und Kulturbau (BWK), the German association of engineers for water management, waste management and cultural engineering. The journal has appeared in ten issues per year since 2002, making it a regular and established publication within the German-speaking water and environmental engineering community. Its editorial mission is to publish technical and scientific specialist results and to present and evaluate the societal impacts of environmental protection. In addition to changing cover themes, the journal focuses on water management, hydraulic engineering, flood protection, waste management, soil protection, groundwater protection and water body development. In 2008, an English-language special issue titled Water and Waste was published, indicating an effort to reach an international readership. The journal is distributed primarily in Germany and serves professionals, engineers, scientists and decision-makers in the water and waste sectors. As a publication of a professional association, it functions as a membership and specialist information channel rather than a commercial consumer magazine. Its content combines peer-oriented technical articles with policy and practice-oriented reporting. The journal's website is hosted on the BWK association's domain, where subscription and publication information is provided.
