| 12/14/2006 | | | Siemens: New solutions for disinfecting drinking water and wastewater improve water quality and reduce risks to health |
| The price and availability of water will have a similar influence on the Asian economies as oil and gas imports do today. "Through further development of our product lines and systems for disinfection we are making a contribution to meeting the rising demand for fresh water from industry and the population," explained Roger Radke, who is responsible for global water business at Siemens within the Industrial Solutions and Services Group (I&S). He said the increasing microorganism load in rivers was jeopardizing human health, and making it more difficult to make optimum use of water as a raw material. "It is only with additional water treatments and closed-circuit solutions that greater demand and higher expectations of water quality can be satisfied", continued Radke. "Siemens currently has the broadest range of products and process knowledge for every stage of water treatment and provides all-embracing solutions for industry and municipalities."
