Water Shortages in Monterrey: Analysis and Technological Solutions : Thermoelectric Power Generation and Technological Recommendations to Reduce Water Consumption

Environmental Science and Technology Management could work together to solve real-world problems such as pollution and energy demand. This research area is associated with my previous professional and educational experience where I studied the quality of wastewater and monitored water pollutants in sewage treatment plants.Water is an important and valuable resource necessary in our lives, due to climate change there have been different cities around the world affected by droughts, there is a big demand for clean water and electricity in the world, and considering that not all wastewater produced in the world is treated. Resolving this issue (water crisis) is necessary the construction of new water treatment plants, equipped with the latest technology, such as IoT sensors, cloud data storage, and data analysis in order to forecast or easily identify pollutants in the residual water, additionally, it could be reincorporated it in the thermal power generation process.Involving different technological approaches to increase wastewater recycling is a perfect example of a real application to resolve this problem and benefit the local habitats while also caring for the sustainability of nature, life, and technology development.
