WATER REUSE RESOURCES
-
With applications for drinking water, wastewater, and reuse, XBAT — ion exchange-based advanced treatment — could have revolutionary, far-reaching impacts for utilities.

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.

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

Every drop of water counts, but when we talk about our collective conservation efforts for the greater good, it's natural to think about high-volume users. Those users are generally on the industrial side of things — agriculture, of course; the energy industry, with its intractable relationship to water; and also the food and beverage industry. Thankfully, there are leaders in these spaces who not only understand the need for sustainable water management — they pioneer it.

In several U.S. states, government agencies and utilities are exploring how to treat wastewater properly so it can be used for drinking water — what we know as potable water reuse. While potable reuse is not a new concept, it's being pursued more aggressively with renewed support and new ideas as we see limits with existing water sources.

My water career started with beer. No, not the amount I drank on my way to my chemical engineering degree at Manhattan College. I mean the 10,000+ hours I spent optimizing filtration systems in breweries throughout the world.

What do the semiconductor, food and beverage, petrochemical, and power generation industries have in common? They all rely on water to produce — an increasingly scarce resource.

Though treatment processes can guarantee that water has been completely purified — to the point where it is just as safe as regular tap water — people still feel it could cause them harm. We have to remember, however, that people's beliefs can change.
