Water
Water is the next big global issue. It is a scarce and precious commodity that is taken for granted and yet one that is vital to the well being of both the planet and every individual on it. Even in sophisticated countries the supply of clean water and the safe disposal of waste water are a massive challenge. Imagine what it is like in other parts of the world – little technology and even less money to invest in infrastructure and water is the key to sustaining life.
On average we now use more than 150 litres of water each day for every single person in the country. Combined with the demands of industry and Government, US water companies now produce a massive 10 million litres of clean water per day and there is a similar situations in many other European countries. This is a huge technical and management challenge faced by all water companies and one which is carried out in an increasingly difficult business environment.

Clean Water Sourcing & Processing Water is sourced from rivers, reservoirs and underground aquifers before being processed into clean potable water. The process is expensive, complicated and fraught with potential problems. Water companies invest heavily in plant and infrastructure to source and process water for consumption by the end users.
