Abstract

Water is an essential water resource for the development of each human being´s activities. Using water patterns contain some high consumption, for this reason, it is necessary to know the problems associated with scarcity and pollution. This study aims to use the Water Footprint Indicator to propose the Water Circularity Paradigm in Panama. This delimitation includes the area of Chilibre district on the Alajuela Lake´s edge; this Lake dams up the water of Chagres River, which guarantees the functioning of the Panama Canal. This place is located the Water Treatment Plant, which supplies water to Panama City, Colon, and Arraijan. We intend that this research serves as a model for the paradigm changes of water consumption; and the recovery of green water and reuse of gray water, to establish efficient employment for sustainable management of the water. Without any doubt, from the evaluation of the Water Footprint, to guide our society to the economic circularity of water; overcome the challenges of climate change, demographic pressure, technological innovation, and public policies
