Wastewater recycling technologies are developed in areas where the necessity of water resources cannot be satisfied by natural sources. Nevertheless, nowadays trends and European Union Plans show an increasing interest on using these to reduce environmental impacts. This manuscript aims address question real results differences between each specific case Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology. A study is analyzed answer this question: integral cycle a northern Spain, comparing traditional supply system (system I), alternative wastewater regeneration plant II). System II presents higher impact for all categories (between 1.2 37 times higher), except land use, it reduced 53 %. These larger produced due energy chemical product consumption. Energy consumption main factor causing highest most both studied systems, including one associated resource It accounts at least 50 % total 7 16 evaluated categories. In terms climate change, not particularly significant I, but II, represents around that impact. determined consumption, waste discharge treatment relevant factors. sense, paper highlights importance analysing specifically underscores usefulness LCA methodology as tool improve decision-making management, with emerging crucial focal point.
