Water Engineering & Environment (WEE)
Transcript of Water Engineering & Environment (WEE)
Not only Water Scarcity but also Pollutions
Water quality can be degraded by community and industrial waste discharge.
Erosion and sediment solid waste disposal
Sewage
Competing Demand
• Personal Use
• Agriculture
• Industry
• Power Generation
• Fish/Aquatic life
• Recreation
• Navigation
• Wastewater Discharge capacity
In Summary• Two billion residents in world have no immediate
access to water sources.
• Forecast shows that in the near future morethen a third of the world population will sufferfrom water shortage.
• There is a need for expert and quality personnel recruitment in order to safeguard and continue the technological advantage that exists in the water technology fields.
