The adaptive approach to urban planning seeks to build resilience as a pre-step to sustainability. In line with this, the study adopted Nature-Based Solutions (SbN) to propose the readjustment of urban rivers and streams, combining environmental and socioeconomic interests. Thus, the use of Constructed Floodplain Treatment Systems (CFTS) was proposed. These combine the functions of natural floodplains, elements of fluvial geomorphology that are disregarded in conventional urban drainage, being optimized by elements of Engineering. Thus, as a research hypothesis, it was considered that the CFTS would act in the treatment of rainwater, reducing the load of diffuse pollution carried to water bodies by the conventional drainage system. Furthermore, its use would also corroborate the temporary retention of part of the volume drained in the urban basin, favoring its infiltration. Therefore, the proposal aimed to combine both quantitative and, mainly, qualitative control of urban waters, acting as a protective barrier for the aquatic ecosystem. The conception of the CFTS is also in line with what is proposed by the Sustainable Development Goals, SDGs, proposed by the UN. And, in order to verify the initial hypothesis of combined qualitative-quantitative action, a literature review was carried out on the potentialities of implementing such systems and consideration of the study of scenarios. The study's conclusions allow to highlight the potential, in terms of sustainable urban drainage, that the CFTS confer. Therefore, it is believed that a better technical detail, obtained by implementing the systems on a full scale, can generate results that validate their application.
