WATER REUSE RESOURCES

  • 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.
  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • The business case for industrial water reuse has fundamentally shifted. Companies once evaluated these systems against environmental goals or regulatory compliance costs. Today, they're measuring them against operational risk and supply security — a calculation that increasingly favors reuse regardless of sustainability credentials.
  • Lessons in urban water management through water conservation, capture, and reuse.
  • In the heart of Israel’s Jezreel Valley, Ba’emek Advanced Technologies—part of the Tnuva Group—faced a critical challenge: how to sustainably reuse water extracted from whey during dairy processing without compromising safety or quality.

  • The wastewater treatment industry is quickly uncovering the usefulness of boiler feedwater for more sustainable operations. The advantages and applications are becoming more innovative and resourceful as more enterprises deploy consistent water reclamation practices.

  • Water is one of the most essential resources in any industrial setup, and managing it efficiently can mean the difference between success and stagnation. Welcome to the world of industrial water services — a sector that's as critical as it is complex.

WATER REUSE SOLUTIONS

  • NeoTech D338™

    The NeoTech D338™ is specially designed to disinfect water and is an essential component in advanced oxidation processes.

  • DE NORA TETRA® ABF Bioactive Filter

    The DE NORA TETRA® ABF bioactive filter combines ozone generation with biologically active filtration for use in municipal water applications. The process targets micropollutant reduction and reduces disinfection byproducts in drinking water and potable reuse applications.

  • NIROBOX™ Containerized Desalination Solutions

    Small-footprint, containerized solutions to treat water from any source- at any scale.

  • NIROBOX™ SW

    Containerized seawater desalination solutions ensure water availability in a wide range of applications.

  • SuperDisc™ Disc Filter

    WesTech’s SuperDisc™ Disc Filter from Nordic Water is a Title 22 approved inside-out disc filter.The SuperDisc provides easy access for maintenance and has an efficient high pressure cleaning system. The small footprint and low head required for the filter provides an excellent option for tertiary retrofits, such as travelling bridge sand filters. The SuperDisc can produce reuse-quality effluent and total effluent phosphorus concentrations of less than 0.1 mg/L. Other applications include primary and secondary treatment, as well as a wide range of industrial applications. The SuperDisc filter is available as a freestanding unit with filter discs contained in a stainless steel tank and a version for installation in a concrete basin.
