I just happened to be doing that for school so here is a unfinished copy of it.

Industry

In Industry water is used in many different ways. Unfortunately they can only use fresh water because salt water can and probably will break the machines.

Some things that factories use water for is generating electricity. The way that they generate is called hydroelectricity. What happens is that the water goes through tunnels and down turning the turbines. The generators then harvest the energy that is made through the turbines. For industries it might be a bit expensive to start but then in the long run they will save money.

They also use it in paper industries for creating the pulp which eventually after a process is turned into paper (for more information check the paper section on this poster).

It is also valuable to industries for its ability to wash things away. Industries wash away waste materials.

The industries that use machines use water for cooling and washing.

Some food companies use water as an ingredient in their food.

They would also use water for sanitation.
