In response to worsening drought conditions and the impacts of climate change, California has enacted permanent water restrictions for its residents. These new measures, aimed at promoting long-term water conservation and sustainability practices, include:
⦁ Outdoor Watering Limitations: Restrictions on the amount and timing of outdoor watering.
⦁ Water-Efficient Appliances: Mandatory use of water-efficient appliances in homes and businesses.
⦁ Car Washing and Lawn Irrigation: Tightened car washing and lawn irrigation regulations to reduce water waste.
These efforts reflect California’s commitment to managing its scarce water resources more effectively in the face of climate change.
Challenges Faced by Organizations
California Agricultural and Business organizations are currently facing unprecedented challenges: antiquated water treatment systems that wastewater, increasing regulations, corporate mandates for water reduction, rising costs for water consumption and disposal, seasonal variability in water quality, and increasing water scarcity, among others.
Voltea’s CapDI Technology: A Modern Solution
Voltea’s Capacitive Deionization (CapDI) technology addresses these issues by using small amounts of electricity to purify water. CapDI technology offers several advantages:
⦁ Water Efficiency: This technology often saves twice as much water as traditional methods.
⦁ Durability and Low Maintenance: CapDI systems tolerate variances in water chemistries and produce tailored water, requiring less maintenance.
⦁ Remote Operability and IoT Readiness: The systems are remotely operable and ready for IoT integration, enhancing ease of management.
⦁ Chemical-Free Operation: CapDI does not use added chemicals or salts, making it an environmentally friendly option.
Bottom Line: Voltea’s CapDI technology not only increases profits and reduces risk for organizations but also supports environmental sustainability by conserving water and reducing chemical use.
