  2. The Role Of Big Data In Water Resource Management: Predicting And Preventing Crises 7/30/2024
    The widespread adoption of Big Data has the potential to revolutionize water resource management, expanding the possibilities of water-related work and altering the development of water systems to improve sustainability in both agriculture and metropolitan areas.
  3. Eco-Dredging: Balancing Sediment Removal With Environmental Preservation 7/19/2024
    Wastewater professionals in the U.S. are cleaning up their processes to represent sustainable ideals. Dredging is next on the list to become a greener version of itself. Sediment removal may be dredging's basis, but it is possible to respect habitats, biodiversity, and conservation despite the activity.
  4. Harnessing Rainwater: A Sustainable Solution For Water Security 7/15/2024

    The global rainwater harvesting market, valued at US$839.7 million in 2022, is projected to exhibit a robust CAGR of 6.3%, reaching US$1.5 billion by 2031. This growth is driven by escalating water scarcity concerns exacerbated by erratic rainfall patterns and climate change impacts.

  5. Advantages Of Using Ozone And Biologically Active Filtration For Potable Reuse 7/12/2024

    Understanding how ozonation and biologically active filtration (O3-BAF) systems work and their benefits in reuse can help water authorities meet cost, treatment, and sustainability goals.

  6. Using Ozonation And Biologically Active Filtration To Remove Micropollutants 7/12/2024

    Ozonation and biologically active filtration (O3-BAF) is being increasingly used to address the issue of organic micropollutants (OMPs) in wastewater treatment and potable reuse.

  7. A Tiny Bit Of PFAS 7/12/2024

    In the most recent edition of Water Innovations, there is not a single article focused on PFAS. That wouldn't be exceptional if not for the fact that discussion around per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances has so thoroughly dominated the water space lately. And yet, I penned this as an intro to the edition — just "a tiny bit of PFAS" content — because a small portion of PFAS is of the utmost importance in terms of treatment, policy, and cost.

  8. The Potential Of Rainwater As A Renewable Resource 7/12/2024

    As water resources become more stressed, continuing to "waste" rainwater becomes increasingly inadvisable, perhaps even irresponsible.

  9. Unlocking The Potential Of Corporate Funding To Address Water Challenges In Our Communities — Part 3: Promoting Scalable Impact And Innovation 7/11/2024
    The final segment in Brown and Caldwell's series on corporate water stewardship (CWS) discusses how the public sector can get more involved in CWS and presents opportunities for win-win partnerships that drive strategic innovation.
  10. A Multi-Billion-Dollar Water Industry Segment Not To Be Overlooked 7/11/2024
    Water resources are a critical component of any region's ecosystems. But, perhaps even more important is the realization that water is also essential for human survival. Its needs cannot be ignored.
