(don't) Waste Water! | Water Tech to Solve the World

S6E7 - Why would you Burn Wastewater?


Listen Later

We burn far too much wastewater!


The industry represents roughly 20% of the World's water abstractions. 


And sometimes, that water gets exposed to a wide array of complex pollutants, hence transforming into wastewater that's hard to treat.


What would you do if you were an industrial whose core business and competencies have nothing to do with the treatment of those substances?


Well, you'd go for the path of least resistance which is, believe it or not, to burn these complex wastewaters. 


Now, you don't find incinerators for that purpose in every city, so sometimes, on top of burning water which is incredibly inefficient, that water travels distances and takes boats and trucks on the way.


The thing is that every wastewater has its treatment like Cinderella has her glass slipper!


You just need dedicated experts for that. That's how companies like Inopsys or Axine turn that treatment into a service, take over the liabilities, make it in a much more sustainable fashion, and often even for cheaper.


Once you know that, don't you think that we burn too much wastewater?


Wanna dive deeper into the topic? Here are two interesting follow-ons listens:

S4E12 with Steven De Laet (the CEO of InOpSys) 

S4E16 with Jonathan Rhone (the former CEO of Axine)
