1 Towards Sustainable Water Processes Trends Challenges Sustainability Solutions Summary Ilkka Pollari, director (Product Stewardship) Kemira Oyj Towards Sustainable Water Processes Ilkka Pollari 10 June
2 Trends Population growth Most megatrends are essentially linked to water Population growth More need of drinking & washing water More need of irrigation for food & biomass More need of water in industrial processes Urbanization Climate change Climate change Droughts, floods, erosion Loss of stabilizing water bodies (glaciers, natural wetlands, permafrost) Rising sea level destroying infrastructure on low areas Environmental awareness & legislation Polarisation eg rich north / poor south Towards Sustainable Water Processes Ilkka Pollari 10 June
3 Challenges: Water scarcity Population growth Water stress by 2025 Urbanization Climate change New solutions MUST be found: - Reduce amount of wasted water - Increase availability of fresh water - Reduce environmental impacts - Restore natural water bodies Environmental awareness & legislation Polarisation eg rich north / poor south Revenga et al 2000, from Pilot Analysis of Global Ecosystems: Freshwater systems. UNEP/Vital Water Graphics Towards Sustainable Water Processes Ilkka Pollari 10 June
4 Challenges: Cost Clean water demand is highest in the poorest regions Water infrastructure investment costs are very high But: High water cost gives endless opportunities for innovation! How to use water optimally? How to save water and energy? How to make low cost fresh water from sea water? How to recycle treated water? How to improve rain water utilization? How to add value to customers? Towards Sustainable Water Processes Ilkka Pollari 10 June
5 Sustainability? Consideration and actions for - Environment - Society - Economy Global view The fresh water demand supply gap is very serious and becoming soon critical in certain densely populated areas Low water availability and poor infrastructure affect human health and environment and create geopolitical risks Main needs: - Political & economic stability - Massive funding - Better technological solutions Company view As fresh water becomes scarce and more costly, there are endless opportunities for innovation Industrial companies are essential in solving the global problems Towards Sustainable Water Processes Ilkka Pollari 10 June
6 Solutions for sustainability 1 Common sense - Stop unnecessary use of fresh water - Repair leaking faucets and pipelines - Minimize discharge of harmful materials into nature - Teach your children - Seek facts and act for the environment EVERYBODY can help here! Towards Sustainable Water Processes Ilkka Pollari 10 June
7 Solutions for sustainability 2 70% of fresh water is used in agriculture We need smarter agriculture - More efficient irrigation (e.g drip irrigation, reduced evaporation systems, fertigation, hydroponics, ICT (smart practices)) - Water efficient species (possible with natural or GMO species) - Global farming planning (e.g no cotton in water stress areas) Towards Sustainable Water Processes Ilkka Pollari 10 June
8 Solutions for sustainability 3: Better technologies are constantly being developed - Efficient, low energy processes for desalination of sea water - New membrane materials & systems - Using solar & other renewable energy - Efficient, low energy processes for treatment of raw/process/waste waters and sludge handling - Improved biological processes - Improved chemical processes - Reducing water treatment costs - Energy production from waste water processes (e.g. biogas from sludge, microbial fuel cells) Better products - Renewable raw materials - Biobased (vs oil based) products - Biodegradable products - Spontaneous or biological decomposition - Recycled raw materials - Iron and aluminum coagulants from metal industry waste streams - Nutrient recovery from sludge - Products requiring less - Raw materials, energy, water - Packaging, transport - etc Towards Sustainable Water Processes Ilkka Pollari 10 June
9 Solutions for sustainability a summary For an industrial company - Creating value to customers - Developing & selling products which improve water efficiency and reduce environmental impact - Co-operation along the value chain - Improving sustainability of own operations - Environmental impact - Care for the employees - Good profitability - Responsibility in society - Creating jobs & welfare - Proactivity in regulatory issues - Tell your good story - Be a Good corporate citizen Towards Sustainable Water Processes Ilkka Pollari 10 June
10 What did I try to tell you? Solving the fresh water problem requires education, investments and innovation Everyone can help by using common sense Industrial companies are needed to develop and deliver solutions to customers Co-operation is essential Towards Sustainable Water Processes Ilkka Pollari 10 June
