Seventy percent of the Earth is covered in oceans, but humanityâs water needs are met by less than one percent of the planetâs total water in the form of aquifers or snowpack-fed rivers. We pump it from the ground, treat it, drink it or spray it on crops, and dispose of it. With global population expected to exceed 10 billion by 2050 and water scarcity a critical challenge, itâs time to rethink that model.
The National Alliance for Water Innovation is focused on treatment and reuse technologies for nontraditional water sources. Examples are municipal wastewater, seawater, meat- and dairy- processing wastewater, and agricultural-drainage water.

Engineering professors from New Mexico State University have earned the distinction of being among the top 2% of scientists worldwide as measured by the impact of their research publications. The engineering authors were identified in a worldwide database of top scientists created by Stanford University and recently published in the journal Public Library of Science Biology.
“Our faculty are at the forefront of several key research areas in engineering. They are among the best of our peers in terms of research productivity. The number of publications per faculty and number of citations, place our researchers very competitively among our peers,” said Lakshmi N. Reddi, dean of the College of Engineering.
