From advanced water reuse in large-scale methanol production to the growing demand for sustainable solutions across Europe, efficient water management is becoming a key driver of innovation. As industries face increasing water scarcity and stricter regulations, smart treatment, recycling, and reuse are no longer optional, they’re essential.

Discover how industrial water is transforming production, protecting resources, and powering a more sustainable future.

With an interest in studying environmental engineering and with a close connection to industry, Francisca Sousa Braga knew she wanted to do something meaningful and to make a positive contribution.

“In retrospect, there may have been some youthful optimism in that choice, but it turned out to be the right one, and I’ve never regretted it,” she tells Aquatech Online.

“Looking back, I realise that I’ve always been interested in water and the environment. From a young age, I was very engaged in water-related activities such as swimming and surfing, and being a scout also played an important role in shaping my connection to nature and environmental responsibility,” she adds.

Her time in the scouts also left her with a foundational principle that has guided her studies and career. Always leaving a place better than you found it.

Braga is currently an industrial PhD student. By the time you are reading this article, she will have defended her thesis and will also be helping shape the careers of other future water professionals.

Partnerships and collaborations between companies, utilities and local governments are going to become increasingly important in the fight against water scarcity across Europe in the coming years.

No longer is working in silos an option, as the realisation that water problems are multi-faceted, multi-regional, and inter-linked with other concerns, becomes part of the critical thinking behind regulations and movements such as water stewardship.

Combining expertise can also help to identify challenges and promote innovations that lead to real-world testing and eventually implementation.

In Béziers, a city in southern France, SUEZ and Salinity Solutions (supported by ADEME) are piloting a hybrid solution that they hope will set a new benchmark for water reuse efficiency in a municipal wastewater treatment plant.

A range of processes is required to remove potential health risks, remove water and reduce the volume and weight of sludge to improve both the costs and options for disposal.

With the correct treatment, sewage sludge can be transformed from what was considered a waste into a valuable resource and sellable product, also known as biosolids or bioresources.

However, there are risks involved and tightening regulations that will help to shape the future of sludge treatment and the resources that can be recovered and used from the process.

Aquatech China has been an important fixture in the region’s calendar since the first event launched in 2024. Last year, the event welcomed 500 exhibitors from more than 15 countries, although the vast majority were domestic companies. Visitor numbers increased year on year, with a 35 per cent increase from mainland China, and a seven per cent increase in those attending from overseas. Encouragingly, exhibitor satisfaction was high, with a vast majority indicating that they would be back for this year’s event.

In anticipation of the 2026 edition, Aquatech Online caught up with Yvette Hu [Yvette Hu-胡禕], general manager of RAI China, to find out what makes the event unique, what visitors and exhibitors can expect from the event, as well as from the conferences and sessions that run throughout the event, and why international companies can gain from attending.

It seems crazy that policymakers and financial institutions are still ‘waking up’ to water. The UN’s [UN Sustainable Development Group] Sustainable Development Goal 6 (SDG 6) calls on governments to ensure the availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all by 2030, yet there is still a considerable amount of work to do before that target is even remotely achievable.

SDG6.6 specifically stated: By 2020, protect and restore water-related ecosystems, including mountains, forests, wetlands, rivers, aquifers and lakes. Clearly, there is some way to go before this becomes a global achievement.
The economic benefits of doing so have been clear for a long time. In 2012, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) detailed why watershed conservation made more sense than building or repairing grey infrastructure.

More recently, large companies (think Apple, Google, Microsoft, Procter & Gamble and more) have all incorporated water into their sustainability reports, and water stewardship standards are helping companies assess and improve their impact at site and basin levels.

One of the leading programmes is run by the Alliance for Water Stewardship (AWS). This has recently been upgraded from v2.0 to v3.0.

In this Viewpoint article, Alicia Dauth, water assurance technical lead at Water Security Collective, shares her thoughts on the recent changes and why stewardship is so important for companies looking to mitigate operational risks while enhancing the ecosystems in which they operate.

Water is full of engineers. It’s also a good place for accountants, as Adam Saffian Ghazali FCA will proudly tell you.

Serving nearly 10 million people across Malaysia's most economically vital region, Air Selangor is transforming from a utility that fixes problems into one that anticipates them. Named as an ‘outstanding utility’, Ghazali, its CEO, explains why data and digital tools have become a crucial part of the utility’s transformation.

Find out how this transformation has taken place by reading our story on Aquatech Online.

Around the world, countries are getting tougher on PFAS remediation in water.
China has recently announced draft revisions to wastewater standards controlling the petroleum refining and synthetic resin industries. For the first time, these revisions label PFAS as controlled pollutants.

Over in the US, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is continuing to provide support for the smaller communities and water systems tackling PFAS in drinking water through its PFAS OUTreach initiative.

In Europe, the European Union’s REACH regulations are under review with the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) proposing a universal restriction on more than 10,000 PFAS. The EU has already begun tightening its rules, and recently released an analysis that revealed the costs involved in four scenarios for tackling PFAS: the cheapest scenario was to immediately cease all production and use of PFAS, which would involve remediation costs of €330 billion between 2024 and 2050.

Aquatech Online caught up with three companies providing PFAS remediation to find out how regulations were shaping the development of their solutions.

A sustainable and resilient water future will not be achieved through incremental change. It requires a rethink of how water is understood and managed – not simply as a resource, but as part of a connected system spanning communities, infrastructure, land use, energy and ecosystems. How well we manage these connections will ultimately determine our progress towards net zero and climate resilience.

In this article, British Water explores developments across Greater Manchester, UK, where water is already being designed into the fabric of the city in ways that would have been difficult to imagine even a decade ago. A central theme running through the Manchester discussions was the need to intervene earlier in the system, before problems escalate.

In practice, this means shifting investment upstream, addressing the root causes of flooding, pollution and water stress before they become crises, rather than focusing primarily on downstream fixes. This isn’t just a technical change. It requires stronger partnerships, the confidence to invest before problems become crises and often, political courage.
