05.13.26 -- Water Isn't Unlimited—Here's How Utilities And Industry Are Adapting

Updating Consumer Perceptions On The Value Of Water

Here are curated resources and practical guidelines to help utilities rethink water as a finite, high-value resource—encouraging smarter management, improved efficiency, and long-term sustainability in the face of growing demand and constrained supply.

 

Why UF/MF Membranes Matter For Industrial Wastewater Reuse

Rising water scarcity and escalating costs are driving manufacturers to rethink wastewater as a resource, not waste. By investing in advanced treatment and reuse strategies, companies can reduce operational expenses, improve sustainability, and secure a more reliable water supply in increasingly constrained environments.

 

How To Cost-Effectively Remove Oil Contaminants From Industrial Wastewater

For years, membrane filtration was considered an ineffective solution to oil removal. However, advancements in material development have led to microfiltration (MF) and ultrafiltration (UF) membranes that can handle oil-contaminated wastewater without excess fouling, resulting in a more cost-effective solution for oil removal.

 

High-Flux Membrane Filtration For Oil And Water Separation

Environmental regulations and water scarcity have created a need for economical water treatments that increase reuse. This paper will review the new PPG membrane that has a unique composite single-layer microstructure that provides high-flux, excellent separation capabilities and exceptional durability.
