Reuse Brew, crafted from high-quality treated wastewater, aims to raise awareness of the opportunities that recycled water offers to combat water scarcity.

The Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation is managing a project to replenish freshwater mussels, a “First Food” of the tribes.

Xylem Vue has been awarded the prestigious Citation of Excellence in Advertising in the Best Design category by the Water Environment Federation (WEF). The accolade was presented on September 29 during the WEFTEC trade show in Chicago.

The Kariba Dam holds back the world’s largest artificial reservoir and generates power for millions of people in Zambia and Zimbabwe. A recent study of the dam showed how it affects the release of greenhouse gas emissions in the reservoir and downstream. Using Xylem’s YSI EXO2 multiparameter sonde for continuous monitoring, researchers gained new insights into how hydropower plants can be optimized to reduce carbon emissions.

As extreme weather events like heavy rainfall and flooding become more frequent, combined sewer overflows (CSOs) are putting greater strain on urban water systems.  These overflow events not only threaten local ecosystems but also pose public health risks. To meet these growing challenges, utilities need smarter, data-driven approaches to effectively manage and mitigate CSOs.

Utilities worldwide are turning to artificial intelligence (AI) to improve efficiency, anticipate challenges, and secure their water supply. In this Q&A, Xylem’s Vice President of AI Solutions and Impact, Austin Alexander, explains how people and technology together are shaping a more resilient, data-driven future for water management.

NLN Farms, located near the coastal town of Chocowinity, North Carolina, needed to transfer water from four aquaculture ponds to a nearby reservoir. The farm selected Xylem's Godwin CD100 dewatering pump for the job, with Field Smart Technology, which enables real-time monitoring and control of the pump from a smartphone.

When heavy rains hit, minutes matter. A few extra moments of warning can mean the difference between reaching safety before a flood or being caught by rising waters. That urgency drove German students Jana Spiller and Niklas Ruf to design WarnMe, a low-cost, open-source flood warning system for small towns and rural communities.

Relocation of major sewer infrastructure enables construction of pedestrian link for 35 million visitors to the 2025 Jubilee.

To move forward with long overdue infrastructure upgrades, Nodra AB needed a wastewater bypass solution capable of lifting up to 3,000 liters per second into its Slottshagens treatment plant. Xylem’s Rental Solutions team set up a turnkey wastewater bypass station in a little over three weeks. Through dedicated service personnel and remote, digital monitoring and control, Xylem provided 24/7 operational support throughout the 10-week bypass.

Global Omnium supplies water to 400 Spanish towns and cities, serving over five million people, and manages one of the largest smart meter networks in Europe. To collect and process smart meter data, the utility developed a unique software and analytics platform, now part of Xylem Vue. Discover how the utility uses the platform to improve operations and offer new services.

The utility Roslagsvatten in Sweden needed a more efficient way to inspect its pump stations. It decided to test Avensor Remote Inspection from Xylem, a brand-agnostic hardware kit that sends live video, audio and data to operators. The solution reduced pump station visits by 50%, giving operators more time to focus on crucial tasks.

Appalachian Hydro Associates (AHA) in Ravenna, Kentucky, was seeking to develop a more cost-effective model for small hydro projects. AHA partnered with Berea College to offset the upfront investments, then began planning a small hydroelectric power plant at an abandoned lock chamber along the Kentucky River. With five Flygt hydro turbines from Xylem, the plant is now a source of revenue for the college, producing 500 kilowatts of energy per turbine.

South Coast Mariculture wanted to better understand the water quality conditions of their mussel farms in Jervis Bay, located in New South Wales, Australia. After deploying Xylem’s YSI buoy with EXO2 multiparameter sonde, they now have data that can help them increase productivity, better understand the water column, and expand their aquaculture business.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is dominating global conversations, as people question what it will mean for society and how to identify the best ways to put its transformative powers to work responsibly. We’re already seeing the incredible impact of Amazon’s Alexa, Apple’s Siri and ChatGPT on our everyday lives. How will AI shape the future of water?

The water sector has a role to play in the global effort to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions and helping to slow climate change. Our sector is energy-intensive, and technology now gives us an opportunity to manage water much more efficiently.

Globally renowned recognition reinforces Xylem’s commitment to protecting employees and driving a culture of care and well-being.

In honor of International Women’s Day 2023, Xylem is gathering leaders across the company for panel discussions on this year’s theme #EmbraceEquity. Making Waves caught up with four panelists who are helping Xylem customers around the globe overcome water challenges.

Innovative utility builds resilience, while protecting bottom-line, through proven digital solution

What can an Antarctic lake tell us about the origins of life on Earth, and how can it help guide our search for life on Mars? These are some of the questions researchers hope to answer using Xylem’s YSI Technology as they dive deep beneath the surface of Antarctica’s Lake Untersee. Join them on a journey three billion years into the past.

Every hour the UV system can treat as much drinking water as almost nine Olympic swimming pools.

The Great Book of Water helps children around the world learn about water and how it touches every part of our lives. The book was originally written in Spanish by Xylem’s Denise Pouleurs to fill what she saw as a gap in the market. Here’s her story.
