IMPLEMENTING CIRCULAR ECONOMY PRINCIPLES THROUGH A MODULAR TANK DESIGN APPROACH
Abstract
In the context of the new directions concerning resource reuse and energy efficiency, the use of meteoric waters represents a sustainable solution in urban development. This paper presents modular tanks designed for the retention and infiltration of meteoric waters. These modular elements not only fulfil the requirements of circular water economy, but also enhance efficiency during implementation. The paper highlights the applicability of modular tanks in both residential and commercial complexes, demonstrating their sustainability in diverse settings. Additionally, the authors stress how important it is to be skilled in manipulating 2D and 3D spatial structures for realizing the geometric design of these modular tanks.
