The Global Water Challenge for a sustainable industry
Water is a strategic resource for a country and is essential for the well-being of its population.
Today, water is threatened by several critical factors:
The increase in the world population.
The growing demand of the agricultural and industrial productive sectors.
By the effects caused by climate change and pollution.
From all the clean water resources, we spend 20% in industrial processes. This means that we need to urgently find more efficient solutions for the management of our resources.
Technology is the key to create a more sustainable and efficient world.
