Xylem joined forces with Americares as part of our efforts to bring water security and sanitation to the world’s most impoverished communities. The partnership is bringing real change to communities in need, already reaching over 3.5 million people.

Materials lacking end-of-life solutions don’t just end up in the landfill - some find their way into rivers and waterways, too.

A water treatment plant in Florida will soon be the first in the state to use a UV cryptosporidium barrier. Xylem will supply its advanced Wedeco LBX Series UV disinfection system to protect against cryptosporidium in West Palm Beach.
Cryptosporidium is the leading cause of waterborne disease outbreaks in the US, impacting almost 750,000 people each year with potentially severe symptoms. As the chlorine-resistant cryptosporidium parasite is easily inactivated with a low ultraviolet (UV) dose, many drinking water plant operators are turning to UV disinfection to provide safe drinking water for their communities.

Activities like the Kleen Sweep are important for protecting the health of the local Little Miami River, and providing volunteers with the opportunity to get involved with local nonprofit partners, with whom they will continue to plan and execute volunteer events throughout the year.
