Municipal water operators face numerous challenges in managing water resources, including emerging pollutants, continuous reduction in water quality, high energy consumption, carbon footprint reduction, and facility management. Growing populations and business growth strain the system, while outdated equipment hampers compliance with changing regulations. New contaminants and decreased water supplies further complicate the task.

These challenges required the implementation of a new approach to ensure the delivery of safe and high-quality drinking water.
