Water scarcity is one of the most pressing global challenges of the 21st century due to its effects on public health, economies & the environment. There is a significant increase in population, industrial growth & irrigation to meet high food demand & sewer flows. The increase in water demand, economic activities & poor water supply management exacts stress on sustainable water provision both in terms of quality & quantity Water quality is subjected to significant deterioration due to land-use activities that present a large number of chemicals into water sources. Water contamination destroys the natural ecosystem that supports human
health, biodiversity & food production.

South Africa is a water-scarce country with an unpredictable & variable rainfall average, droughts, floods & other forms of extreme weather. The country is reported to have high water distribution losses which attribute to interruption of services, intermittent supply, adverse effects on water security, & loss of revenue. It can be argued that the water problem is no scarcity in the hydrosphere but the unavailability of sufficient good quality water. This is due to a gap between the water self-renewal process & water consumption rate.

INWASO GROUP seeks to provide solutions which will promote high quality of treated water, environmentally friendly treated sewer or industrial effluent, promote water recycling & reuse, reduce water distribution losses, & ensure effective management & utilization of the scarce resource thus improving water security to meet demand, support economic growth & preserving environmental contraventions.
