GE made significant contributions to 400 infrastructure projects in the transportation, water, security and lighting sections, providing innovative solutions to help Beijing host the largest, most technologically advanced Olympic Games ever. At the National Stadium, also called the "Bird's Nest," GE provided its ZeeWeed® Ultrafiltration membrane rainwater recycling technologies. The system recycles rainwater for the stadium, which is six times the size of a soccer field, using underground pools that can process up to 100 tons of rainwater per hour, 80 tons of which can be re-used for landscaping, fire-fighting, and cleaning-a direct way to lower the stadium's water consumption.
