1 GE Water & Process Technologies The Water:Energy Nexus Enabling the future with portfolio solutions Desalination Solutions: Drawing on the ocean s virtually limitless water resources, GE s desalination technologies Desalination are helping water scarce regions to create new freshwater sources that can quench growing demand. Solutions Municipal Solutions: Facing unprecedented growth and water demand, cities are turning to GE s advanced Municipal membrane and water quality measurement technologies to tackle increasingly stringent water and wastewater Solutions regulations and the threat of new, virulent pathogens in our lakes and rivers. Product Water: Consumers use the products they trust whether it is pharmaceuticals, food, or beverages. Product As brands expand globally, GE technologies ensure high quality ingredient water for manufacturing regardless of Water a plant s location or its water source. Residential Products: GE point-of-use and point-of-entry filtration systems are enabling homeowners Residential to produce higher quality water from every tap in the home. This same technology is helping developing countries Products to leapfrog traditional, costly infrastructure and provide safe water to those who need it most. Utility Solutions: GE is optimizing system efficiency & increasing uptime in cooling towers and boilers by reducing Utility energy usage and greenhouse gas emissions. Advanced monitoring systems reduce the risk of pathogen Solutions growth, such as Legionella, in cooling systems. Process Chemicals & Separations: Process Silently working in pipes, tanks and process fluids, GE s advanced chemicals protect Chemicals valuable production assets from & corrosion and fouling faced in day-to-day operations, while improving overall manufacturing efficiency and quality. Separations Industrial Wastewater: Once considered a by-product, GE s water reuse technology is transforming industrial wastewater Industrial into a sustainable, new water source that can often be used many times over dramatically reducing the strain on our precious water resources.
