Panel Discussion - "How Decarbonization Reshapes Water Strategies"
As decarbonization accelerates, industries face evolving scenarios of water demand and quality that challenge conventional resource management. This session examines how shifting energy sources, emissions targets, and production processes reshape the way water is sourced, treated, and discharged. Panelists will highlight strategies for adapting to higher quality standards, reduced water availability, and fluctuating regulatory frameworks.
The discussion will focus on innovative treatment technologies, reclamation approaches, and real-time monitoring systems that enable swift, data-informed decisions. Attendees will gain insights into how rethinking water strategies support business resilience, enhances resource stewardship, and aligns operations with a rapidly decarbonizing industrial landscape.
