Drinking Water Supply
Partner with us to confidently provide consistent water quality and quantity.
As experts in water system infrastructure and technology, we support you throughout the entire drinking water cycle. We offer state-of-the-art solutions to produce high-quality water using optimized design approaches for system efficiency. Our water treatment technologies can be applied across a range of production capacities, ranging from small, remote, or rural locations to major metropolitan centers.
Guaranteeing Water Quality: A Commitment to Excellence
Water quality is non-negotiable. Delivering quality water means rigorous testing, advanced filtration, and continuous monitoring. High-quality water must meet or exceed federal and state water standards, ensuring that contaminants are removed and that the water is safe for consumption, cooking, and hygiene.
We have more than 160 years’ experience in developing and deploying cutting-edge technology to maintain water quality across your entire water system. This includes real-time sensors, advanced treatment plants, and technologies that proactively manage water resources. The result is that you can deliver reliable, high-quality drinking water that supports the health of millions.
Discovering and Managing New Water Resources
As climate change and population growth strain traditional water supplies, discovering new water resources becomes essential, and we are at the forefront. Groundwater management is a key component of this effort. Local water districts are investing in the maintenance and recharge of aquifers to ensure long-term availability.
Recycled water is another vital resource. By treating wastewater to high standards, you can reuse it for irrigation, industrial processes, and even potable applications. This reduces pressure on freshwater sources and enhances the resilience of your water supply system.
Desalination is gaining momentum, particularly in coastal regions, where converting seawater into drinking water as a tool to diversify supply portfolios and reduce reliance on other water resources. As a global leader in water innovation, we are driving the development of advanced technologies that are making traditionally energy-intensive processes like desalination more efficient and cost-effective. These breakthroughs are turning once impractical solutions into viable tools for addressing today’s most urgent water challenges, from scarcity and drought resilience to long-term resource sustainability. With a legacy of innovation and an unwavering commitment to solving global water issues, we stand at the forefront of sustainable water solutions, delivering the technologies that are shaping the future of water management worldwide.
Our inspiring stories
Premium quality drinking water for the Auxerrois Community
SUEZ is committed to guaranteeing access to very high quality water for the 70,000 inhabitants of the Auxerrois Community through the construction of two new drinking water production plants. With work to begin in 2025, both plants will be commissioned by the end of 2026.
These high-performance ecological facilities will be equipped with innovative low-pressure reverse osmosis technology: a membrane filtration system that retains most of the undesirable mineral salts (nitrates, sulphates, as well as excess calcium) naturally present in drinking water, most micropollutants (pesticides, drug residues, etc.) and pathogenic viruses or bacteria.
This innovative and ecological process makes it possible to obtain premium water, without chlorine taste and much less calcareous.
Frequently Asked Questions
High-quality drinking water meets or exceeds federal and state standards for safety, taste, and clarity. It is free from harmful contaminants like lead, bacteria, and nitrates, ensuring it’s safe for consumption, cooking, and hygiene.
Innovation drives the development of energy-efficient treatment methods, smart infrastructure, and predictive analytics. We have been a leader in advancing water technology for more than 160 years and have developed many technologies that are helping utilities optimize resources, reduce waste, discover new resources, and ensure long-term water sustainability.
Diversifying water sources, such as groundwater, recycled water, and desalination, helps you withstand supply disruptions. It ensures a more stable and flexible water system in the face of climate change.
Urban water sources typically include surface water (rivers, lakes), groundwater (aquifers), and increasingly, recycled and desalinated water. Diversifying these sources helps you manage demand and build resilience against drought.
