Water Treatment Plant Filtering Clean Water

Water is essential to all life on Earth, and the need for clean, accessible water is as urgent as ever. By 2030, water demand will exceed supply by 40 percent, according to the World Bank. Conservation alone will not fill the gap.

The chemical industry plays a vital role in developing the products and technologies that enable clean water. Advances in technologies made possible by chemistry will enable water conservation, sanitation, reuse and the transformation of contaminated water into clean, safe drinking water for people around the world.
