Submitted by J. Mikhail on

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – August 13, 2024 – As the world grapples with the escalating impacts of climate change and a burgeoning global population, the need for innovative and sustainable water management solutions has never been more critical. VALVE WORLD EXPO 2024, a leading international trade fair for industrial valves and fittings,will spotlight the pivotal role of digitalization in navigating this complex water transition. The event, scheduled for December 3 to 5 in Düsseldorf, Germany, will showcase cutting-edge valve and fittings technologies that underpin Water Management 4.0 – the fusion of the physical and digital realms in water resource management.

The Urgency of the Water Transition

The global water crisis is intensifying. Droughts and floods are becoming more frequent and severe, impacting communities and ecosystems around the world. "Business as usual" is no longer a viable approach, according to the VALVE WORLD EXPO organizers. They emphasize that a "water transition is essential" to address these challenges and ensure water security for future generations.

Digitalization: A Catalyst for Change

The integration of digital technologies is revolutionizing water management. Networked measuring instruments,sophisticated control systems, and automated processes are empowering water managers to collect, analyze, and respond to real-time data with unprecedented speed and accuracy.

"Data – for example from drives – is accessed, collected, and finally analyzed in real-time in order to make quick and more informed decisions," explains the VALVE WORLD EXPO team. "Processes are being automated, making them more efficient." This digital transformation is not only driving greater efficiency and cost-effectiveness but also addressing the growing skills gap in the water management sector.
