WATER REUSE RESOURCES

• Why Energy Efficiency Is The Quietest Form Of Risk Management

  For the better part of a decade, industrial electricity prices behaved like a slowly shifting floor. From 2016 through 2020, wholesale prices in most major markets were remarkably stable. A plant built in 2018 could reasonably expect its electricity costs to drift, not lurch, through the early 2020s. That baseline is gone.

• From Compliance To Circularity: Rethinking Chromium Management In Chrome Tanning

  In an industrial landscape increasingly shaped by lifecycle accountability, material traceability, and rising disposal costs, chromium recovery is not merely a technical alternative — it is a strategic upgrade, where wastewater can become a resource stream.
• Innovative Water Reuse Solutions With Xylem's Advanced Treatment Technology

  Transitioning to advanced purification methods like UV-hypochlorite oxidation allows municipalities to secure reliable, local water supplies. These strategies mitigate drought risks and protect coastal environments by transforming wastewater into a high-quality resource for reuse.

• Produced Water Treatment Market: The Next Big Wave In Industrial Sustainability

  With the rise of water scarcity, environmental regulations, and corporate sustainability mandates, produced water treatment has become a strategic imperative for industries far beyond oil and gas. It is one of the fastest-growing segments in the water treatment industry, which has emerged as an amalgamation of environmental stewardship, regulatory compliance, and technological innovation.
• Reclaiming Water From Contaminated Brine Can Increase Water Supply And Reduce Environmental Harm

  People around the globe are trying to figure out how to save, conserve, and reuse water in a variety of ways, including reusing treated sewage wastewater and removing valuable salts from seawater. But for all the clean water they may produce, those processes leave behind a type of liquid called brine. I’m working on getting the water out of that potential source, too.
• Water In 2026: The Nexus Of Policy, Technology, And Resilience

  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.
• How To Tackle Water Scarcity In A City Of 22 Million People

  Making Waves spoke with Bing Liu, Sales GM of Xylem’s Water Infrastructure business in China, about the country’s growing water reuse opportunity and one utility leader that is leading the way: Beijing Drainage Group.

• Responsible Reclamation – City of Abilene, Texas

  To combat drought, Abilene, Texas, implemented a reuse system utilizing O₃​ + BAC to remove trace organics. This solution met strict standards, ensured water resilience, and proved more cost-effective than AOP alternatives.

• Megadroughts Are Here To Stay, And U.S. Water Utilities Need To Adapt

  Researchers warn that California and other states affected by megadroughts — periods of drought lasting 20+ years — will have to accept this as the new normal. That means rethinking the water cycle and finding new, more sustainable water sources.
• Water Conservation And Reuse For Data Centers

  Because of our own decades-long mismanagement of our collective global water resources, we are now facing a global freshwater crisis where the demand for freshwater is predicted to exceed its supply by 40% by the year 2030. Directly coinciding with the water crisis timeline is the growing need for data center construction in order to accommodate AI, cloud computing, and other Big Data and IoT processing.
