Wastewater treatment necessary to grow the economy

Consistent and sustainable water supply is necessary to ensure socioeconomic growth; therefore, wastewater treatment, as a comparatively cost-effective solution that reduces strain on available water supply, is vital to economic growth in water-stressed countries, says waste management company Interwaste. Aside from augmenting water supply to boost economic activity, wastewater treatment, along with other water management solutions, creates business and employment opportunities, especially in light of climate change and its expected cost-accretive effects on water resources worldwide.
