The world's rapid population growth, coupled with rapid climate change, is increasing the competition for resources. At Water Life Systems, we're committed to doing our part to operate sustainably. Our innovative Impact solutions provide resource conservation, energy savings, the reuse of water, food security, and better population well-being and health outcomes.
Advanced O3In-Gen™ technology is one example of WLS’ focus on cost savings and increased treatment effectiveness. O3In-Gen™ is used in WLS’ PureBOX™ distributed / decentralized package plants and controlled environment food production systems. The systems are ideally suited for a scalable solution to provide clean water, wastewater treatment, and food security for all by 2030 in a world where billions of people do not have access to sufficient water supply and sanitation services. We envision a world without waterborne pollution and the abundance of freshwater for all through the use of our water treatment and monitoring systems, which correspond most directly to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals SDG 6 - Clean Water and Sanitation:
Target
By 2030, achieve universal and equitable access to safe and affordable drinking water for all.
Indicators
Proportion of population using safely managed drinking water services.
Target
By 2030, achieve access to adequate and equitable sanitation and hygiene for all and end open defecation, paying special attention to the needs of women and girls and those in vulnerable situations.
Indicators
Proportion of population using safely managed sanitation services, including a hand-washing facility with soap and water.
Target
By 2030, improve water quality by reducing pollution, eliminating dumping and minimizing release of hazardous chemicals and materials, halving the proportion of untreated wastewater and substantially increasing recycling and safe reuse globally.
Indicators
Proportion of wastewater safely treated
Proportion of bodies of water with good ambient water quality
Target
By 2030, substantially increase water-use efficiency across all sectors and ensure sustainable withdrawals and supply of freshwater to address water scarcity and substantially reduce the number of people suffering from water scarcity.
Indicators
Change in water-use efficiency over time.
Level of water stress: freshwater withdrawal as a proportion of available freshwater resources.
Target
By 2020, protect and restore water-related ecosystems, including mountains, forests, wetlands, rivers, aquifers and lakes.
Indicators
Change in the extent of water-related ecosystems over time.
WLS strives to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for all by the 2030 goal date. This collection of 17 global goals is designed to be a "blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all." Our operations and solutions contribute to all of the UN's SDGs. #WeCanSaveTheWorld
WLS systems provide sufficient water, sanitation & hygiene, and agriculture resources to promote good health and well-being within localized populations. Clean water and health are intimately linked, as water pollution is known to kill more than wars, violence, and disasters combined.
WLS systems increase water supply to over 2 billion people worldwide that have to carry water, a responsibility that falls mainly to women and girls. Our systems reduce the time required to collect and distribute water, which opens up time for education, economic, social, and other activities.
WLS systems are at the core of providing water stressed populations with clean water and sanitation services. Currently some 2.2 billion people worldwide do not have sufficient drinking water services, 4.2 billion people do not have safely managed sanitation services, and 3 billion lack basic handwashing facilities.
WLS systems are designed with minimal on-demand power consumption and are fit with solar and battery power systems where appropriate to promote affordable and clean energy. Our modular systems can be fit with wastewater energy production hardware if desired.
The distributed / decentralized nature of WLS systems promotes job creation and further, the WLS wastewater treatment methodology and systems maintenance requirements decrease the stigma associated with sanitation systems. The increased access to water, sanitation, and food security is a prime economic driver.
WLS technologies assist with smart water supply, sanitation, and food security infrastructure development, and facilitate the sustainable and resilient operation of industry. Distributed / decentralized treatment is more affordable, quicker to deploy, and easier to maintain than traditional centralized treatment.
WLS systems decrease stigmas associated with Bottom of Pyramid populations, as well as within the sanitation industry. Our hygiene and sanitation systems are designed with equitable access in mind.
WLS systems provide urban, peri-urban, and rural communities with sustainable life support systems that require very little production, installation, and commissioning time, Our systems offer on-demand industrial, agricultural, and environmental sustainability and resiliency solutions.
WLS systems allow the indefinite reuse of water, resource recovery, and ultra-energy efficient treatment methods that allow users to responsibly consume and produce without the fear of economic collapse due to lack of water, sanitation, and food security.
WLS sustainable and resilient water and wastewater treatment systems are direct climate action solutions that reduce pollution and carbon emissions. The time for action is now. We help you act faster, and act better, to improve global climate challenges.
WLS systems reduce pollution, allowing life below water the ability to survive and thrive. Discharge of inadequately treated wastewater causes algal blooms, which kill fish, a vital source of food worldwide. Our wastewater treatment and monitoring solutions provide guaranteed effluent quality, eliminating harmful nutrient pollution in our waterways.
Global population growth estimated to rapidly hit 9.7 billion by 2050. Rapid urbanization and industrialization will reduce the amount of water and land available for farming, and coupled with climate change challenges such as the intensification and increased frequency of severe droughts and floods, more food will be needed to be produced from less land, using less water. Water supply, wastewater treatment, and food security are keys to overcoming these challenges.
WLS systems provide life support and resource conservation, that allows global populations and institutions to focus on the prevention, and humanitarian response, to human warfare.
WLS engages in partnerships and coordination with various forms of government, NGO, academic, and private business to further its systems’ integration and benefits to humanity. Together we can overcome any challenge.
