Mike McGann, leader of the Measurement & Control Solutions group for Xylem, discusses how macro business trends like onshoring and reshoring are placing significant pressure on water utilities. More specifically, the increased demand for water from data centers and microchip manufacturing plants, which can consume up to 5 million gallons of water daily, is forcing utilities to plan and prepare differently.
Xylem, he said, is positioning itself to help utilities address these challenges by focusing on water reuse solutions. They offer technologies including efficient pumping, advanced treatment, advanced filtration, and disinfection to assist both utility and industrial customers in tackling water reuse problems.
