BlueTech Web Briefing

BlueTech’s water industry web briefings deliver focused, 40-minute expert sessions on the technologies, markets and investment signals shaping the future of water. While many webinars focus on surface-level updates, our web briefings draw on proprietary research and real-time market intelligence. As a result, utilities, suppliers and investors gain clarity around the decisions that matter most.

In addition, our water industry web briefings explore priority themes such as PFAS treatment and concentration, industrial water reuse, desalination, digital water technologies and emerging infrastructure trends. At the same time, each session connects technical developments to market realities, regulatory shifts and capital allocation pressures.

Ultimately, these briefings are designed not just to inform, but to help stakeholders interpret early signals before they become mainstream.

Quaternary treatment:
The new frontier in micropollutant removal

Dr. Bilal Asif
Research Analyst

Rhys Owen
Research Director

Martino Finotelli
Client Relations Manager

Municipal wastewater treatment has entered a new era through the EU’s revised Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive. Utilities are facing increasing pressure to remove organic micropollutants (e.g., pharmaceutical and personal care products) that conventional biological and tertiary treatments cannot eliminate – how are they facing up to this challenge, and what does the regulatory, technology and market landscape look like? In this web briefing Research Analyst Dr Bilal Asif will present highlights from his Insight Report “The European Quaternary Treatment Market: Regulations, Technology, and Market Size”, featuring a live Q&A session.
