May, 1999A Complete Guide to Wastewater Treatment Technologies
Driven by an ever-growing need for a finite resource and increasingly tougher regulations, investment in water and wastewater treatment technologies is expected to top $600 billion over the next ten years. Discover the latest advances--and newest opportunities--in this exploding field ...
The commercial potential for water and wastewater treatment technologies is as unique as water itself. Population growth and the increasing use of water in manufacturing and processing are creating an ever-growing demand for clean water--while the existing supplies are rapidly diminishing or are too often too polluted to use. Add tough new regulations to the picture, and the market for new water and wastewater treatment technologies is guaranteed to be huge--and to continue to expand--for the foreseeable future.
From membrane treatment systems and bioremediation to new chemical and filtration processes, scores of technological solutions are in the works. The only problem is, research into these advanced technologies is taking place in dozens of university, government and private company labs around the globe. Keeping track of them all--and identifying those emerging technologies that are showing the greatest commercial promise--would require enormous resources in time and money.
