Closing The Workforce Skills Gap On Artificial Intelligence And Machine Learning At Water Utilities
A Q&A on embracing AI by Kevin Westerling
Although artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) have been under development and talked about for years, the practical implementation of these technologies came fast and furious. Now, with their rapid growth across all industries, many are feeling overwhelmed. This is especially true in the water/wastewater sector, where the median worker age is 48, according to the U.S. EPA, with up to 50% expected to retire over the next 10 years.
Why Municipalities Need A Better Water Treatment Solution
Municipal wastewater treatment is essential for protecting public health and maintaining environmental safety. Traditionally, chemical treatments like chlorine have been the standard choice. However, concerns over toxic by-products, resistant pathogens, and environmental impact are pushing municipalities to seek a safer and more effective solution.
