What is Impact of Digital Transformation on Carbon Emissions Reductions in the Water Industry about?

This chapter discusses how digital transformation can help reduce carbon emissions in the water industry. It highlights the two measures with the greatest decarbonization potential, namely energy efficiency and water efficiency, and describes how digital solutions can increase their impact at each stage of the water value chain. On the energy efficiency front, the chapter highlights how through process simulation and network optimization of desalination and wastewater treatment, as well as by adequate distribution network planning and operation, demand for energy and related carbon footprint can be reduced. On the water efficiency side, the chapter explains how digital solutions can decrease water losses in pipelines and therefore save on the water as a scarce resource and the associated energy-intensive production and distribution.
