Il perseguimento di obiettivi sostenibili rappresenta oggi un’esigenza primaria e non più rinviabile. La sfida di pianificare e programmare strategie di sviluppo economico e sociale, in armonia con l’ambiente e in risposta alle aspirazioni e ai fabbisogni della generazioni presenti e future, impone l’individuazione di procedure e criteri capaci di trasformare quello che è un concetto universalmente riconosciuto in pratica applicazione. In tale direzione, grande rilevanza assumono gli studi settoriali, quale quello dello risorse idriche. La gestione sostenibile delle risorse idriche pone, tuttavia, diverse problematiche legate all’ efficienza, all’ equa distribuzione, alla conservazione degli ecosistemi naturali, all’ottimale gestione all’interno di un sistema integrato e di tipo industriale. In questo scenario, di fronte all’accresciuta complessità gestionale e organizzativa dei sistemi idrici, le teorie e le tecniche di una disciplina quale la ricerca operativa, che si occupa dello studio di metodologie per la soluzione di problemi decisionali, possono costituire idonei strumenti di ricerca applicata di settore. Nel presente lavoro vengono, pertanto, descritti alcuni aspetti del servizio idrico integrato suscettibili di ottimizzazione insieme a una prima applicazione di una metodologia della ricerca operativa adattata al problema della razionalizzazione dell’impiego dei volumi disponibili all’interno di un ambito territoriale.

Abstract
The pursuit of sustainable objectives represents a primary demand today and not more delayed. The challenge to plan and to program strategies of economic and social development in agreement with the environment and which are able to satisfy the aspirations and the requirements of the present and future generations, imposes the research of procedures and principles which can transform a concept universally recognized in practice application. In such direction, the sectorial studies, such as water resources, assume great importance. Nevertheless, the sustainable management of the water resources sets different problems, for instance their efficient use, equitable distribution, maintenance of the natural ecosystems, optimal management inside an integrate system and type industrial. In this scenery, in front of the increasing of the managerial and organizational complexity of the water systems, the theories and the techniques of a discipline, such as operational research which studies methodologies for the solution of decisional problems, can constitute good tools of sectorial applied research. The present work describes some aspects of the integrated water service which can be subjected to optimization; moreover, a first application of an operational research methodology, that has been utilized to rationalize the employment of the available volumes inside a territorial area, is presented.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
