What happens when freshwater runs out? California, and much of the Western United States, is currently having to look for alternative water sources as a combination of population changes, drought, and climate change has created a trifecta that has led to an extreme water crisis.
Water is a finite resource, so it would be difficult to make more. Oh, and only 2.5% of the world’s water is freshwater. In an interview with Greenwire, C.E.O of IX Power Clean Water, John Deal, explained the immense need for effective and accessible water treatment for industrial and oil and gas wastewater. Deal explains, “You know you’re not supposed to be able to see tipping points until you’re looking in the rearview mirror. But this feels like one.”
It is up to us to work together to find innovative technologies to clean and conserve the water that we do have. IX Power Clean Water is dedicated to water conservation and mitigating the impacts of the water shortage. IX technology works relieve water stress in two key areas. First the innovative technology can create a closed loop system for industrial water users. So, industries use less of our most precious resources. Secondly, IX Power’s technologies can clean wastewater from industrial producers and oil and gas production to be safely reused for agriculture or reintroduced into the ecosystem for further use.
As Deal says, “Water comes up with every barrel of oil, so why aren’t we treating all our oil and gas wastewater?”
