Water in Israel! - How a Problem Becomes
an Opportunity!
Water - recovery in industry
The water sector in Israel is a collective name for the production, transmission and storage of water.
The annual amount of precipitation is small and does not meet the needs of the population. In addition,
much of Israel is located in desert areas where there are problems with its shortage. The waters of the
rivers are scarce and are found between neighboring countries that face similar problems. Over the years,
water sources have also spawned geopolitical conflicts between Israel and neighboring countries. The main
part of the peace agreement with Egypt and Jordan concerns the regulation of access to water.
Since
the establishment of the State of Israel, water scarcity and management of the broadly understood water
sector, through its production and recovery, has been at the forefront of the country’s development
strategy. The main areas to be addressed were: the development of new and additional sources of its
acquisition, transport and its transmission for agriculture, wastewater treatment, desalination and water
management as a whole. The issue of powers to manage the water sector has been regulated by a government
body in cooperation with the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the
Mekorot company, which produces and maintains 65% of the national water volume, and Tahal - Israel Water
Planning, which provides engineering solutions for water projects including domestic drinking water supply
and wastewater treatment systems (Israel and Singapore are world leaders in the reuse of wastewater in
agriculture). Today half of the water consumed in Israel comes from desalination and in fact Israel does
not suffer from water shortages as in the past, which allows it to remain strategically secure in this
regard. In recent years, after the legislative solutions, Israel has been prepared to export its knowledge
in the field of water management.
Paradoxically, Poland may face the same problem of water
shortage, given that the resources of this good are at the level of those in Egypt or Syria, and the
method of retention or recovery of water for industrial, living and consumer purposes is ineffective or
does not exist at all. Moreover, the technological solutions do not meet the requirements of today (about
40% of the water transmission networks are made of cast iron and asbestos pipes).
Due
to the fact that water resources are shrinking at a terrifying pace due to climate change, we as a country
and the world will face a problem,

is
water our common good or will it be a commodity in the future, or is it already?
Such cases are
already occurring in Australia, and financial instruments have emerged in the US to finance the purchase
of water options
Analyzing the actual state of affairs, I am convinced that our Forum
can be a platform for the exchange of knowledge and experience, and as an organization with great
potential, we are ready to provide full substantive and institutional support to any projects treating
this issue as important and priority.

Water - recovery in industry
We co-create solutions and efficient water recovery installations for many industries and the economy
based on domestic and foreign experience. We offer individual and comprehensive water recovery solutions
for a specific technical infrastructure, thanks to which it is possible to reuse post-process water. This
significantly reduces the amount of waste generated and reduces operating costs.
Our
cooperation with entities and research units where their over several decades of experience in the
technological water purification industry is a guarantee of the highest efficiency of water recovery
installations. Thanks to technological knowledge and many years of practice, we offer modern solutions for
hotels, spas, natural medicine facilities, industrial plants - also for the food industry.
Thanks
to the technology used, we recover up to 95% of clean water from post-process waters after gravel and sand
filters. Our installations significantly reduce the amount of wastewater discharged into the treatment
plant or the environment. Inspired by nature, we provide the most effective water recovery technologies in
order to create a world that cares for every drop of it.
Technology
In our devices, we use advanced, latest technologies that are mainly based on membrane
separation, i.e. microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration and reverse osmosis. We also offer
advanced systems of high-performance special-purpose membranes, which are used in installations operating
in particularly difficult conditions, associated with high temperatures, pressure and chemically
aggressive substances.
Hybrid Membrane Reactor (HRM) - a device whose software is to prepare
treated water for membrane separation. It is our proprietary technology that solves many challenges with
high bio-chemical, physico-chemical indicators, turbidity and microbial contamination. This automatic jug
supply module, power supply, from the biological treatment plant supply, guaranteeing the results of water
search.
Our water recovery stations are designed to effectively remove contaminants from water
or other process fluids, allowing them to be reused. Thanks to our innovative solutions, our clients
implement the concept of a circular economy. In this way, we focus on the rational use of resources and
limit the negative impact on the environment.
Why our Technology?
Water recovery systems optimize the operating costs of industrial plants. Thanks to our innovative
solutions, these costs can be reduced by up to 85% in the field of water management and thermal energy
related to its use.
Each stage of the system design process is preceded by a detailed analysis
of the treatment effects in laboratory conditions and physico-chemical and biochemical analyzes performed
by an accredited laboratory.
The devices are fully automatic and do not require additional
maintenance. We supervise the proper functioning of the station remotely, as well as thanks to mobile,
experienced service teams.
Thanks to our implementations our partners gain a positive image of
responsible, and socially involved entities. We minimize the use of chemicals for water treatment, and we
implement the “Zero Waste” strategy, which consists in the maximum reduction of waste generation wherever
possible.
Content partners
We work with the global leader in the implementation of effective solutions for industry, helping
to protect natural resources for future generations and significantly reduce costs.
We use the
knowledge and resources of the scientific community, incl. Nicolaus Copernicus University, Łódź University
of Technology and Wrocław University of Environmental and Life Sciences.
