Demand for drinking water has risen six-fold over the last half century and is expected to triple over the next fifty years. Yet only about 1.3% of the world\u2019s water resources is available for human consumption. Water purification has become a high-growth industry, expanding globally at a ten to fifteen percent annual clip. The price of potable water, a finite resource, is set to rise in tandem.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">United Waters International (UWI) of Switzerland has developed and introduced a revolutionary biological water purification system that uses no harmful chemicals and produces no residues whilst offering remarkable cost-savings. BioEcoTech also requires up to 80% less energy to produce a sustainable and reliable supply of clean water.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Founded in 2005 and to provide high-tech water purification solutions, UWI brings together strong industrialists, experienced managers, and leading scientists in a collective effort to force technological breakthroughs. Using a partnership model, UWI works in close collaboration with municipalities, NGOs, and other entities to ensure a broad social impact of its technology. The company is already active in Indian and China, and now mulls expansion into Africa and the Americas.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The CFI.co judging panel commend UWI for its hands-on approach to providing water purification solution that are easy to implement and scale at an affordable price and with a minimal environmental footprint. The judges are pleased to name United Water International winner of the 2017 Most Innovative Water Purification Technology Global Award.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The world is thirsty.
