Can a circular economy improve the global water crisis?

2017-09-27

Can the Circular Economy Alleviate the Global Water Crisis? Since 1991, the International Institute for Water Research in Stockholm has hosted World Water Week annually in Stockholm, providing a platform for exchange among academics, industry, politicians, and citizens. With the continued increase in the global population, human activities are rapidly escalating the demand for water resources. Therefore, the World Economic Forum (WEF) warns that water scarcity will be the greatest risk facing humanity in the next decade. However, given the current trend of countries promoting the circular economy, can humanity mitigate the water crisis? This year's (August 27, 2017 – September 1, 2017) World Water Week theme was "Water and Waste – Reduction and Reuse." A key focus of the forum was the integration of systematic planning and management into the global water use industry while promoting the circular economy. The circular economy emphasizes the reuse and recycling of materials, while reducing waste generation. More broadly, the principle of the circular economy is to improve the quality of life for the public and protect the most precious natural resources, while providing more employment opportunities in local communities. Take Del Monte Food Group as an example; its most famous product is canned pineapple. Through a design and planning collaboration with Arup, they used anaerobic reactors to centrally treat wastewater from washing pineapples and production line wastewater to a relatively low pollution level. The gas produced by the anaerobic treatment powers a cogeneration engine. As a result, Del Monte was able to stop using its coal-fired power plant, eliminating concerns about production line shutdowns during potential power outages, and saving on manufacturing costs. Through case studies, the forum strongly recommends that companies examine their processes and systems from a water resource perspective. Identify water resource hotspots that can be reduced and reused, and improve business models, material sourcing, and product design to minimize waste.
