Global Water Shortage Will See More Emphasis On Produced Water Generation

Online, March 31, 2011 (Newswire.com) - "Considering water shortage as global yet unavoidable matter, the option of produced water re - use could be alternative solution in the future," he said.

And he's not the only one, Hani Youssef Argalious, Middle East & North Africa Business Manager for Merpro believes that despite recent successes in utilizing treated produced water for irrigation and industrial use, the reclamation of produced water can be developed further and made more economic especially as drinking water continues to be one of the world's biggest concerns.

"The drastic increase in sheer produced water volume necessitates a continued research effort to achieve simple yet effective methodologies for the future. Oil and Gas can ironically be called by-products of produced water production," said Argalious.
