Industry: Take The Lead On Sustainability Through Water Reuse

By Grundfos

A DEMAND AND SUPPLY IMBALANCE

With expected population growth of 2bn by 2050, and at least 14 of the world’s 20 megacities already facing issues surrounding access to safe drinking water and sanitation, our water resources are under great pressure. Furthermore, the ongoing challenge of water pollution and overconsumption increase the pressure, which leave the world in the midst of a water scarcity crisis.

Which is where water reuse comes in.

To meet global demand for water in a healthy and sustainable manner, society – and industries in particular – must treat wastewater with the end goal of reusing it. Thereby ensuring our overall quality of life can be maintained.

CREATING A SUSTAINABLE PATH

Today, approximately 80% of wastewater is put back into the ecosystem without being adequately treated, exacerbating the issue of water contamination. And, with a 2013 industry report indicating global wastewater levels of approximately 1,500km3 per year and rising , it is vital we find new and innovative ways to reuse as much water as possible.
