This chapter provides an overview of how technological innovation may contribute to decoupling in the water sector. Technological solutions with the potential to contribute to decoupling are described for the agricultural, industry and municipal water- supply sectors. Systems-level technological solutions are also presented. Obviously, the tools described here are not an exhaustive collection of all those available (such a list would be constantly changing as new technologies are developed), but they provide a broad introduction to some of the best- known and documented tools.
