The 14th edition of ASIAWATER is poised to be a landmark event in the water and wastewater management industry, taking place from 7-9 April 2026, at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC), Malaysia.
Warren Controls highlights its industry-leading electrically actuated, modulating, globe control valves with ARIA Series actuators. The ARIA actuator is ideal for correcting commercial steam-fired water heaters that had previously been driven by oversized steam valves.
Sulzer’s energy-efficient flow technologies are driving circular processes at the world’s largest water treatment facility. With a capacity of up to 7.5 million cubic meters per day, Egypt’s New Delta Treatment Plant is treating agricultural drainage water and wastewater from the region for reuse. The clean water produced at the plant will be reused to cultivate 1.2 million acres of arable land. Sulzer’s integrated solutions and expertise help treat water that is channeled along a 120 km-long waterway to support sustainable water management and food security for the area.
Sewer blockages due to the impact of fats, oils, and grease (FOG) in wastewater systems is a major environmental challenge, but innovative waste management partnerships are delivering effective solutions, says Chris Clemes, chief executive of engineering technology company, EcoClarity and Rob Menzies, managing director of Serious Waste Management.
Designing new airport terminals is a complex task and involves many engineering disciplines. While the flow of passengers and luggage are obvious areas for optimization, the planning and design of equipment for managing wastewater and rainwater are equally important, even if they are less noticeable. Sulzer has applied its expertise to the new terminal under construction in Frankfurt, Germany, to ensure all the wastewater remains out of sight.
Xylem (XYL) is expanding its corporate venture investing plans with $50 million committed to support emerging companies and water services providers that solve critical climate challenges such as water scarcity, quality, and decarbonization. Xylem aims to accelerate the availability of water solutions to address these challenges by directly investing in startups developing disruptive water technologies, and by investing in specialty venture capital funds.
PAN Europe and Global 2000’s study (10.07.24) entitled ‘TFA – The Forever Chemical in the Water We Drink’ calls for the urgent ban of PFAS pesticides and fluorinated gases, two of the major sources of this ultrashort-chain fluorinated chemical. TFA was found in almost all of the 36 drinking water and most of the 17 mineral water samples tested.
An acoustic fixed-base pipe monitoring technology that uses fire hydrants to host multi-sensor devices, has already found more than 30 leaks for Kansas City Water, says Lou Rossetti senior vice president of sales North America at Orbis Intelligent Systems. Non-revenue water loss in Kansas City, Missouri, is being driven down by a successful collaboration between the municipality and California-based technology company Orbis.
One sensor for all applications – regardless of the liquid involved – is no longer a pipe dream, thanks to the new radar liquid level sensors. This technology has universally proven its worth in practice over the last two years: in foaming, aggressive, cloudy or transparent liquid media, the radar sensors are able to measure the levels very accurately and reliably.
Armstrong Fluid Technology has announced that Anish Suthesh Arul has been promoted to the role of RSEC Manager, North America.
Idrica and Xylem experts share insights on the region’s water problems and proven digital technologies to help solve them.
Water providers in Southeast Asia face challenges related to geography, economic development, climate change impacts and population growth. The region is home to more than 680 million people, with much of the population located in cities, leading to urban spread that can obstruct the natural course of waterways and increase the risk of flooding.
