Waterless innovations in various sectors have been creating waves of interest – especially in line with the increased importance to sustainability and environmental stewardship in recent times. It is of special significance considering the risks to which businesses are exposed in the face of water scarcity, hence underlining the necessity for waterless innovations. A large number of the major manufacturing industries are water guzzlers.The study discusses about waterless innovations in five sectors namely: textile, printing, oil and gas, power generation and the consumer industry. The key innovators, partnerships, region wise technology adoption and a technology roadmap in these five sectors have also been discussed in detail. Waterless innovations seem to possess great potential for large scale adoption in the future and could be a game changer in many water guzzling industries.
