Taster talk: Dealing with waste water
Dr Ana Lanham talks us through what happens once our used water goes down the drain and how engineers are changing the way we manage this important resource.
‘We are moving towards a society that needs to be more sustainable and we have to stop treating waste water as a burden but rather as an opportunity.’
