Clean water, and access to it, are both becoming scarcer and more contentious. Concerns about micropollutants such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and increasingly complex wastewater treatment requirements are forcing the industry to innovate in a variety of ways. Smart chemical sensors for impurity detection and quantification, advanced filtration and other separation technologies, and pollutant neutralization or destruction are active areas of research. What else is needed, and how can industry and academia work together to innovate, develop, and deploy these solutions together? Our discussion will explore technical trends and needs in the water sector, with a focus on how industry-academia collaborations can boost resources and creativity to address critical water challenges.
