1 20 MLD Mobile Water Treatment Plant Tapping Tomorrow Distributed Mobile and Modular Water Treatment Solutions Towards Addressing Water Scarcity Through Wastewater Recycling New Vaal Colliery

2 WATER is the most essential element of life, because without water,. you can t make coffee.

3 Scarcity of Water CLOSED SYSTEM % of total global water 100% 50% 0% 97% 2% 1% Oceans Glaciers Rivers, lakes & groundwater

4 Water Usage Trends % of total global water 100% 50% 0% 97% 2% 1% Oceans Glaciers Rivers, lakes & groundwater 100% 100% Volume 50% 50% 5% (Lazaova et al., 2013) 0% Accessible fresh water Withdrawn Reused

5 Future Water Demand vs Supply McKinsey Quarterly, The business opportunity in water conservation", by Giulio Boccaletti, Merle Grobbel, and Martin R. Stuchtey

6 Challenges of Climate Change on Water Resources Variable precipitation droughts/flooding Drier subtropics and mid-latitudes overly sensitive hydrology New patterns of runoff & evaporation impact on natural ecosystems Increases in atmospheric temperatures increasing melting of glaciers and water loss to oceans requiring additional desalination

7 Bridging the Gap 100% 100% Volume 50% 50% 5% 0% Accessible fresh water Withdrawn Reused

8 Bridging the Gap

9 Bridging the Gap Problem Drivers

10 Bridging the Gap Technically Challenging Water Complex Water Chemistry Dynamic Potentially Toxic

11 Bridging the Gap Operationally Complex TECHNOLOGY FINANCING SERVICE DELIVERY & LOGISTICS SYSTEMS INTEGRATION

32 Summary Addressing water scarcity through wastewater reuse/recycling is an absolute necessity and is well overdue Distributed, mobile and modular water treatment systems provide the necessary flexibility, completeness of solution and scalability to effectively address: Complex and operationally challenging feed water Meet the expectations of communities and governments when it comes to environmental compliance are increasing fast Technical and operational challenges means there are only a small number of service providers with a proven track record Affordability of water treatment services will continue to be a challenge Innovation and cooperation is critical to future success in the sector
