La question de à exportation de l'eau en gros soulève discussion dans les milieux politiques, économiques, écologiques et nationalistes, surtout au Canada. Cette étude en examine la faisabilité commerciale. Un projet hypothétique est conçu, avec pour site la Vallée d'Annapolis, située dans l'ouest de la Nouvelle-Ecosse, au Canada. Les données démographiques, le climat et l'économie de la Vallée sont analysés et sa ligne de partage des eaux étudiée dans le but de mieux choisir le site d'extraction. La ville de Brownsville au Texas est le marché hypothétique retenu. Un plan contenant un devis estimatif est proposé. Pour exporter l'eau, on se servira de grands transporteurs de brut (VLCC).

Some firms have no choice. Elion Chemical in China is working with General Electric to recycle 90 per cent of its wastewater to comply with Beijing's strict new "zero-liquid discharge" rules...
