Water quality monitoring has traditionally depended on scheduled sampling, laboratory testing, and periodic field measurements. While these approaches remain important for regulatory compliance and detailed assessment, they provide only snapshots of conditions that can change quickly due to rainfall, runoff, source-water fluctuations, industrial discharges, treatment changes, and hydraulic events.

H₂O Innovation (“H₂O Innovation” or the “Company”) has just released its 2025 Sustainability Report, which highlights the Company’s key achievements across water reuse, sustainable chemistry, operational excellence, and responsible growth throughout the year.

Xylem Inc. (NYSE: XYL), a leading global water technology company dedicated to solving the world's most challenging water issues, today announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire the Cornell Pump and Roper Pump businesses from Indicor for $1.46 billion.

Safe drinking water depends not only on treatment, but also on knowing when harmful microorganisms may be present in source waters. Researchers have now developed a data-driven framework that uses routinely measured water quality indicators to predict pathogen concentrations and estimate their potential health risks.

Water scarcity is not just a matter of a lack of supply. What if there is enough water available, but its quality leaves much to be desired? And what if the interests of the various sectors - households, agriculture, industry and energy producers - also clash with each other?

Water is one of the most valuable resources in global food and beverage manufacturing. It supports critical operations including ingredient preparation, food processing, equipment sanitation, cooling, steam generation, and quality control. However, increasing water scarcity, rising utility costs, and stricter environmental regulations are encouraging manufacturers to adopt advanced technologies that improve water efficiency.
