Technological progress and population growth increases the need to generate water from available sources such as sea and brackish water. The technologies available for water production and desalination can be divided into two major types: membrane technology, primarily reverse osmosis (RO), and thermal technologies such as multiple effect distillation and multistage flash distillation.
As water scarcity increases and water prices are on the rise, water reuse is becoming more common in both the municipal and industrial sectors. The leading segments in the industrial market are the heavy water users, mainly the power and energy industry (there are currently 67 power plants across the U.S. that use reclaimed water), food and beverage, the pharmaceutical industry, paper mills, and oil and gas industries (see Figure 1).
