    This document discusses quality and analytics investments focused on monitoring, maintaining, and protecting water quality. It highlights expected annual growth rates in key areas like water analytics, point-of-use treatment, municipal solid waste management, and industrial solid waste management. Growing contamination has increased the need for stringent water monitoring. Analytics help measure pollutants while point-of-use treatment improves drinking water quality, especially in developing countries. Sustainable waste management also protects water resources by preventing contamination from landfills and untreated industrial waste.
