As phosphorus limits tighten across the UK, wastewater utilities are turning to proven, scalable treatment solutions to protect water quality and plan for growth. At its Knostrop Wastewater Treatment Works, Yorkshire Water adopted Xylem’s innovative CoMag™ ballasted clarification technology to meet stricter discharge requirements while increasing treatment capacity and improving operational efficiency.

Innovative water projects demonstrate how advanced technology can transform the way communities, industries and institutions manage water.

Sazerac’s Northwest Ordinance Distilling facility upgraded its inherited wastewater system with Xylem’s anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) technology.

Industrial water reuse is entering a new phase – one where smarter treatment approaches help companies manage risk, reduce costs, and stay productive.

Optimizing water distribution systems and reducing water losses—while enhancing leak detection—is essential to ensure continuous improvement in hydraulic efficiency.

As phosphorus limits tighten, Severn Trent shows how Xylem’s CoMag™ helps UK plants meet strict targets, protect rivers and upgrade treatment affordably.

Lake County Lake Lovers, a volunteer initiative in Illinois, is using Xylem’s water quality monitoring technology and expertise to assess local lakes.

The Great Lakes Water Authority is using Xylem’s Pipediver® technology to proactively inspect and protect a critical transmission main.

How preventative maintenance programs provide utilities with a way to stay ahead of issues instead of just reacting to emergencies.

Against a backdrop of rising energy costs and tighter sustainability goals, maximising mixing efficiency is critical. Traditionally, the spotlight has been on motor efficiency to boost performance but this overlooks the influence of other key factors at play. Hanna Do, Global Product Manager at Xylem explains why it’s important to look beyond IE motor ratings and the primary considerations for selecting a submersible mixer.

Xylem veterans share how the skills they honed during their military service, from problem-solving to rapid response, help them tackle water challenges.

Aurora, Colorado, is meeting the challenges of aging water infrastructure and rapid growth with digital tools that improve performance and service.

When heavy rains hit, minutes matter. A few extra moments of warning can mean the difference between reaching safety before a flood or being caught by rising waters. That urgency drove German students Jana Spiller and Niklas Ruf to design WarnMe, a low-cost, open-source flood warning system for small towns and rural communities.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is dominating global conversations, as people question what it will mean for society and how to identify the best ways to put its transformative powers to work responsibly. We’re already seeing the incredible impact of Amazon’s Alexa, Apple’s Siri and ChatGPT on our everyday lives. How will AI shape the future of water?

The water sector has a role to play in the global effort to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions and helping to slow climate change. Our sector is energy-intensive, and technology now gives us an opportunity to manage water much more efficiently.

Process intensification is changing the water treatment industry, offering a solution for the modern challenges faced by municipalities.
