Researchers have isolated naturally occurring light-driven bacteria from local pond water and shown that, within just one week, these microorganisms can substantially reduce the levels of organic pollutants in raw sewage — pointing toward a low-cost, environmentally sound approach to wastewater treatment

Following recent cyberattacks targeting municipal water systems across the United States, RedVeil, the leading AI-driven penetration testing platform, today announced an initiative to help municipalities and critical infrastructure providers fortify their defenses.

Weather forecasts rely on many and various kinds of data, including temperature, humidity and wind data. For the first time, researchers including those at the University of Tokyo demonstrate that a long-theorized improvement to weather models by adding data on water isotopes in the atmosphere does in fact work.

As AI data center capacity races to keep pace with compute demand, water has become one of the sharpest constraints on where, and how fast, new facilities can be built. Nowhere is that clearer than West Texas, where one of the nation’s largest AI infrastructure developments is taking shape in a region with limited water resources.

The Star Sewer and Water District in Idaho has successfully completed a critical water infrastructure upgrade using AVT's EZ Valve insertion valve technology, allowing crews to install a new water line connection without interrupting service to existing customers.

The U.S. National Science Foundation has awarded $7.9 million to establish the PFAS Environmental Research Network (PERN), a four-year initiative bringing together Vermont researchers, educators, students, and state partners to better understand and address environmental chemical contamination.
