Waste Heat

Unwanted thermal energy generated and often discarded in the environment during industrial processes or energy production.

Depleted Water

Water resources that have been significantly used up or reduced, commonly due to human consumption, pollution, or climate change.

Algae Blooms

Rapid increase in the population of algae in aquatic ecosystems, often due to excess nutrients, which can deplete oxygen and harm aquatic life.
