Journey of Swys in Effective Communication

  In the article, “Singapore Water Story” from Public Utilities Board (PUB) website (2020), PUB claimed that by the year 2060 Singapore’s water demand could double. With the non-domestic sector accounts for about 70 percent of Singapore’s future water needs, NEWater and desalinated water will be able to cover up to 85% of Singapore’s water needs. To keep up with the increase of water demand, investments has been made to conduct research and development of technology to “treat”, “recycle” and “supply water”. By 2060, NEWater is estimated to fulfil up to 55 percent of Singapore’s water needs. With the addition of two more desalination plant, desalinated water is projected to meet up to 30 percent of the potential water needs of Singapore. As Singapore’s water demand grows, we need to establish a stable & affordable water supply for generations to come.   Everyone has a part to play in the effort towards managing Singapore’s water demand. With the rising of Singapore water ...

  With the rising of Singapore water demand and the non-domestic sector taking up to 70%, I believe that desalination water and NEWater will be able to supply up 85% of the nation’s future needs. Public Utilities Board (PUB) has provided information on what they have implemented to secure Singapore’s water future. PUB has implemented phrase 2 of the Deep Tunnel Sewerage System project. With phrase 2, the existing tunnel system will be extended into the western part of Singapore. With the extension, there will be an increase to the amount of water being conveyed to the treatment plant. From the article, PUB stated that “By collecting every drop of used water, DTSS allows for efficient, large-scale water recycling thus ensuring the sustainability of NEWater.” This implies that more areas in Singapore will be covered and water collected for treatment into NEWater and increases the amount of NEWater produced. The Straits Times new release (Feb 5, 2021) covering the opening of Singa...

In the article “Singapore Water Story” from The Singapore National Water Agency (PUB) website (2020), PUB claimed that by the year 2060 Singapore’s water demand could double. Non-domestic sector would account for about 70% of the total demand. PUB is confident that by then, NEWater and desalination will meet up to 85% of the nation’s water demand. In order to meet Singapore’s future water demand, PUB’s approach can be distilled into three key strategies “Collect Every Drop Of Water”, “Reuse Water Endlessly” and “Desalinate Seawater”. Currently, there are three desalination plants in Singapore with the combined capacity of 130 mgd that will meet 30% of Singapore’s water demand. PUB is confidence that by 2060 with the addition of 2 more desalination plant, desalinated water will cover up to 30% of Singapore’s future demand. Singapore’s five NEWater plants can meet up to 40% of the nation’s current water needs. With the expectation of NEWater meeting up to 55% of Singapore’s future water ...
