Abstract
The latest advancements in water research plays an essential and vital role for the amelioration of the mankind. The demand for water was inexorably rising for industrial manufacturing, urban development, agriculture, oil and gas processing, domestic purpose and for environmental water requirements. This will continue to increase and will represent the crucial challenges in future in the field of water research. The Ecosystems depend on the quality and availability of water to survive. The paucity of adequate clean water to encounter the human drinking water and sanitation needs is in fact an obstruction for economic development, and for nurturing the clean and sound ecosystems. Due to rapid growth of population, the fresh water availability becomes a difficult task for healthy lives and clean environment. The progress and execution of water treatment technologies was majorly induced by invention of latest rarer pollutants, dissemination of current water quality standards and cost aspects. The intention and objective of writing this paper is on current trends in water research particularly on treatment processes and its significance in terms of quality and quantity. It contains various treatment techniques such as ultra filtration, ultraviolet irradiation, distillation, ion exchange , reverse osmosis, desalination, and low cost water treatment methods , environmental friendly and sustainable treatment technologies and its environmental impact to resolve several water problems.
