  1. 7 Common Pump Failures In Manufacturing Plants, And How To Prevent Them 1/22/2026
    Water pumps are the quiet workhorses of manufacturing plants, as they support everything from cooling and boiler feed systems to handling wastewater and chemical processing. When water pumps run reliably, operations stay on schedule. However, when they fail, disruptions can quickly spread across an entire facility.
  2. Water In 2026: The Nexus Of Policy, Technology, And Resilience 1/20/2026
    As water systems become more circular and complex, understanding and managing the subsurface — the hidden half of the water cycle — is becoming a critical enabler of resilience. This article explores the key trends shaping this new reality, from tackling “forever chemicals” to the water strategies redefining heavy industry.
  3. How Strategic Asset Planning Solves Infrastructure's Toughest Challenge 1/15/2026

    Modern infrastructure management requires moving from reactive repairs to data-driven capital planning. By quantifying risk and predictive failure patterns, utilities can justify essential funding and maximize the impact of every dollar spent on system-wide resilience.

  4. How Satellite-Based Leak Detection Saves Utility Budgets Millions 1/15/2026

    Across the globe, water systems face an invisible crisis that drains billions of dollars every year. In the U.S. alone, aging infrastructure causes water losses costing utilities an estimated $6.4 billion annually. But a breakthrough in satellite-based leak detection is changing the game, delivering unprecedented savings and operational efficiency. 

  5. Recover Fast: Your Guide To Wastewater Treatment System Restoration 1/15/2026

    The question isn’t if process upsets will happen — it’s when. Whether due to a sudden increase in capacity needs, regulatory pressures, equipment failures, wet weather or other seasonal fluctuations, it’s critical to return to compliance as soon as possible to avoid costly shutdowns.

  6. 2026 Predictions: The Next Frontier Of Water Starts Now 1/15/2026
    Emerging trends signal a new era of agility, ethics, and resilience for water professionals.
  7. How The NEPA Rollback Will Impact Water And Wastewater Industries 1/15/2026
    The White House has finalized plans to roll back rules under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), narrowing its focus and limiting what the current administration claims are needless delays for federal approval of water, energy, and other infrastructure plans. For water and wastewater utilities, the changes could speed up permitting for critical projects, although experts warn the tradeoffs could do more harm than good.
  8. What Is Bathymetric Modeling? And How Can It Protect Ecosystems While Saving Resources? 1/14/2026

    Bathymetric modeling maps underwater terrain. It also helps guide planning, prevent hazards, and build climate-resilient infrastructure.

  9. Down And Dirty With Digital: How AI Enhances Water Infrastructure Fieldwork 1/14/2026

    Fieldwork is at the heart of infrastructure expansion and rehabilitation, as utilities, engineers, and contractors collaborate to build the systems and structures that treat and move water. The opportunity is great, but so are the challenges. Which is why new, digitally-enhanced tools are needed.

  10. Making Unplanned Downtime A Myth: Why Water Utilities Should Move From Time-Based To Condition-Based Maintenance 1/13/2026

    Many utilities still default to time-based maintenance, servicing equipment by the calendar or hours of operation of the equipment. It’s simple, but it often creates two expensive outcomes: over-maintenance and surprise failures. A smarter path is condition-based maintenance.
