Meet Our Featured Speakers

Leaders in desalination and resource recovery will take the stage at the Desalination & Resource Recovery 2026 forum. The event will foster meaningful synergies between advanced water treatment processes and AI-driven systems, establishing the path towards a more sustainable and efficient water future. Amid shifting market dynamics, water scarcity, climate change, urbanisation, and ageing infrastructure, the event brings together utility leaders, desalination experts, operators, and policymakers from across the world to exchange insights and promote innovation-focused collaborations.

The trend is evident: AI-driven innovations are reshaping the desalination industry by optimising filtration, predictive maintenance, and real-time water quality monitoring. Through advanced analytics and machine learning, desalination operations can enhance efficiency, reduce operational costs, and minimise environmental impacts. This wave of technological adoption allows operators to improve water quality while effectively monitoring and managing micropollutants, microplastics, and micronutrients, ensuring compliance with rigorous standards and reducing the overall carbon footprint.

Industry analysts anticipate substantial growth in the global desalination market, driven by the urgent need to address water pollution and the combined challenges of resource scarcity and climate change. Across the world, facilities are approaching a crucial stage as AI-powered systems optimise costs and minimise environmental impacts, reshaping water treatment and resource recovery. This technology-focused transition is setting a new standard for operational reliability, establishing the foundation for scalable and decentralised water treatment solutions that can adapt to both ageing infrastructure and evolving operational demands.

At the Desalination & Resource Recovery 2026 conference, companies and research institutions will showcase their latest solutions and products aimed at improving operational performance through AI-driven systems. The conference will offer a dynamic platform to explore emerging growth opportunities, address the complex challenges of water scarcity and pollution, and highlight technological advancements in the desalination industry. Beyond immediate operational improvements, these innovations are redefining the business landscape and reinforcing the long-term sustainability of water
treatment and resource recovery on a global scale.
