Innovating For Water Security: The Future Of Sustainable Water Conservation

eawater

Water is the essence of life, yet its scarcity is becoming an escalating crisis worldwide. The pressures of urban expansion, climate variability, and inefficient resource management are depleting freshwater reserves at an alarming rate. The need for innovative, sustainable water solutions has never been more urgent. One of the most pressing challenges in water conservation is the inefficient use and management of available resources. A significant portion of treated water is lost due to leakage, aging infrastructure, and operational inefficiencies. However, the integration of smart water management systems—powered by IoT…

On World Water Day 2025: ‘Preserving Glaciers,’ Grundfos reaffirms our commitment to water security and UN SDG 6. Glaciers are critical—feeding rivers, supporting communities, and regulating climate. As these ice masses melt, cities worldwide must become flood-resilient while addressing drinking water challenges. As a leading provider of pumping solutions globally, Grundfos calls for meaningful partnerships to protect these vital water sources. Together, we must ensure glaciers continue their essential role in regulating the water cycle, bringing us closer to true water security for future generations. By Raveendra Bhat, Area Sales…

World Water Day 2025: Measuring Water, Securing The Future

eawater

Water is the silent force that sustains life, yet its scarcity is becoming one of the greatest challenges of our time. We speak of conservation, sustainability, and responsible usage—but how can we truly protect what we do not measure? This World Water Day, it’s time to shift the conversation. For decades, we have managed water based on estimates and assumptions, treating it as an abundant resource rather than a finite one. But what isn’t measured cannot be controlled, and what isn’t controlled cannot be saved. From households to industries, from…

CorroLogic®: The Smart Solution forCorrosion Protection at Airport Tank Farms

eawater

Airports go through hundreds of thousands of gallons of jet fuel each day, requiring tank farms to store plenty of reserve fuel onsite. These aboveground storage tanks (ASTs) are under strict regulations to ensure physical and environmental safety, including the protection of tank floors from corrosion. While cathodic protection (CP) has long been a go-to for corrosion inhibition, the last two decades of tank protection have seen CorroLogic® Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors become a new industry standard that offers a smart solution for protecting storage tanks at airports and beyond.…

Proper-Polymer-System-Selection

By Del Williams, Technical Writer Based in Torrance, California To help comply with EPA wastewater regulations and reclaim valuable resources, chemical polymers are added to industrial clarifiers, settling ponds, and other wastewater equipment at various stages of treatment. These polymers promote flocculation, a process in which small particles clump together into larger particles called flocs, which settle to the bottom. The clarified water can then be discharged for re-use, disposal, or further treatment. The problem with this highly effective and economical method of removing suspended solids from wastewater is that…

Addressing-Water-Scarcity

By Subhash Sethi, Chairman, SPML Infra Limited Water is the lifeblood of social and industrial progress, yet India faces a severe and escalating water crisis. Despite having 18% of the world’s population, the country possesses only 4% of global freshwater resources, leading to a significant water imbalance. This challenge is further intensifying due to rapid urbanization, continuous population growth, rising industrial expansion, and climate change events, which impact rainfall patterns and resulting in water scarcity. India is also the largest consumer of groundwater, extracting approximately 230 billion cubic meters annually.…

Techs-Role-In-Resolving-Water-Crisis

By Kanishka Chatterjee, Director & Head, The/Nudge Prize India grew from merely 51 million tons (Mt) of food grain production in 1950/51 to over 314 Mt in 2022- a sixfold increase in production. What led to this remarkable outcome was the shift to science-led agricultural development, planner’s vigour and the dedicated effort of millions of farmers. This transformed India from an acutely food-scarce and food shortage nation to a food surplus and food exporting country. However, these accomplishments came at a price- trading in water security, a resource even more…

Indias-Groundwater-Crisis

By Utkarsh Bhargava, Consultant, Avalon Consulting India’s population grew rapidly after independence, putting immense pressure on the country food supply. Agricultural output did not increase at the same pace as population growth. Traditional farming methods were outdated, with minimal use of technology, leading to poor crop yields. Most farming was dependent on rainfall, and infrastructure for irrigation, fertilizers, and pesticides was inadequate. As a result, India faced severe food shortages and had to rely heavily on food imports. Famines, malnutrition, and low agricultural productivity made the country vulnerable to recurring…
