Pioneering Solutions for Malaysia's Water Crisis

Join us as Dr. Mohammad Sherafatmand from Hydroleap discusses innovative solutions to Malaysia's critical water challenges. With the nation's ageing infrastructure and rising water demand set to increase by over 100% by 2050, the need for sustainable solutions is more urgent than ever.

Dr. Sherafatmand explains how his company's proprietary electrochemical engineering technology offers an environmentally friendly and cost-effective way to treat wastewater, which could play a crucial role in addressing Malaysia's water scarcity issues.

We also explore successful models from Singapore, like the NEWater project, and discuss how Malaysia could adapt these practices to meet its unique water needs.
