Podcasts about water recycling

In this episode of 21st Century Water, we sit down with John J. Entsminger, General Manager of the Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA) and the Las Vegas Valley Water District. John oversees the water supply for 2.5 million residents and 40 million visitors annually in one of the most water-stressed regions of the United States. He shares his journey from environmental law to leading a major water utility and highlights the pivotal moments that shaped his approach to water management, including the 2002 Colorado River drought and the 2007-2009 recession.John explains the vast scale of SNWA's infrastructure, from its 250 miles of massive pipelines to the 7,000 miles of distribution lines in the Las Vegas Valley Water District. With climate change and cybersecurity as the biggest challenges facing water utilities, he emphasizes how SNWA has aggressively tackled conservation. Through innovative measures like removing non-functional turf, enforcing watering schedules, and deploying water enforcement officers, Southern Nevada has added 800,000 people since 2002 while reducing total water consumption by 35-40%.We discuss the importance of strategic investments, including a $1.5 billion low-lake-level pumping station at Lake Mead, designed purely for redundancy to secure supply. John also shares insights into international and interstate water negotiations, where he has played a key role in agreements involving the seven Colorado River Basin states and Mexico. He highlights the delicate balance of ensuring every party “loses” just enough to reach a compromise that sustains long-term water management.A key advantage for Las Vegas is its ability to recycle nearly 100% of indoor water use. Thanks to its unique geography, all wastewater is treated and returned to Lake Mead, allowing for legal return flow credits. The city's only significant water losses come from outdoor irrigation, evaporative cooling, and septic systems, which SNWA is actively addressing. John also discusses their use of innovative leak detection technology, AI-powered predictive maintenance, and automated metering to enhance efficiency.One remarkable case study is how SNWA worked with Formula 1 to make the Las Vegas Grand Prix the first net-positive water race in history. By offsetting race-related water use with an atmospheric water generator installed at MGM, the event saved more water than it consumed. John sees AI playing an increasing role in optimizing pipeline maintenance and customer leak detection, making conservation even more effective.Another is the building 54 weirs, which are erosion-controlled structures to slow down the water. And over the last 20 years, the number one source of materials for those weirs is imploded old casinos.As we wrap up, John reflects on his legacy, emphasizing pragmatism and the importance of speaking truth to power. His leadership has positioned Southern Nevada as a global model for water conservation and resilience, proving that even in the face of extreme scarcity, strategic planning and innovation can secure a sustainable water future.More: Las Vegas Valley Water District: https://www.lvvwd.com/Southern Nevada Water Authority: https://www.snwa.com/ Aquasight Website: https://aquasight.io/

Picture a world where wastewater transforms into drinking water like a fairytale glass slipper. California's water regulator is leading the charge towards a future where purified wastewater becomes clean, delicious drinking water for all. But people have questions about how advanced water purification will work, and we're here to get some answers from the people who are turning wastewater into wonder. In Episode 18 of What Matters Water TV + Podcast, we are diving deep into how we can squeeze every last drop of use out of our water resources. In this episode, we're exploring Direct Potable Reuse or DPR (also known as advanced water purification). Whatever you want to call it it, this is California's groundbreaking solution to water scarcity. To unravel the nuances of DPR, we've gathered a panel of experts. Tony Estremera from Valley Water will shed light on the Silicon Valley Advanced Water Purification Center, a pioneering facility in northern California. Also, joining us is Dave Pedersen, overseeing operations at Las Virgenes Municipal Water District and serving as President of WaterReuse California. And Dawn Taffler is a recycled water specialist at Kennedy Jenks, bringing extensive expertise in planning, engineering, and demystifying the complexities of water reuse. From ‘advanced purified water' to public education, we'll delve into cutting-edge technologies and regulations ensuring the safety of reclaimed water. It's a tale of scarcity, science, and human ingenuity. And let's not reduce it to just “toilet to tap,” as the process entails far more complexity and innovation than the term suggests. Tune in as we dive into the depths of advanced water purification – this is not your average water cooler chat!

As water comes out of being a government monopoly general awareness of its potential as an asset is starting to take off, and enterprises are beginning to treat their own water at the point of pollution… Which makes sense! They can recycle it, lower costs, avoid regulatory fines and disposal costs in many cases and have greater water independence. So, innovating a way to not only speed up but also turn that recycling trend into an investible asset that gives everyday individual investors preferred access? H-U-G-E! How huge? Find out in the replay!

Video Version: https://youtu.be/8hjsmIyC9ggWater reuse is crucial for addressing water scarcity and has many environmental, agricultural, and economic benefits. Yet, despite technological advancements and proven safety, public acceptance remains a challenge due to misconceptions and the importance of communication strategies. What we'll discuss today:

Texas State University's Keisuke Ikehata, Ph.D., an assistant professor in the Ingram School of Engineering, joins the Big Ideas TXST podcast to discuss an innovative pilot program to convert wastewater into purified drinking water.  Texas' rapid population growth combined with ongoing drought conditions has led to water shortages across the state. In the face of this challenge, Ikehata sees an opportunity for the public to embrace the idea of using treated wastewater for daily needs, a process referred to as potable water reuse. Ikehata and his students have partnered with the San Marcos Wastewater Treatment Plant on an advanced water purification system that turns more than 5 million gallons of wastewater into clean, environmentally safe water on a daily basis. An expert in advanced water and wastewater treatment and sustainable water resources management, including water reuse, desalination and stormwater management, Ikehata earned his doctorate in civil and environmental engineering from the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada. In July 2019, he joined TXST as one of four founding members of the civil engineering program. Prior to joining TXST, Ikehata worked for more than eight years as a technical specialist/R&D manager at a water resources engineering firm in Orange County, Calif. and eight years in academia in California, Alberta and Kansas. FURTHER READING:TXST researchers implement innovative wastewater treatment strategiesUSBR grant funds research into contaminant detection for water reclamation systemsDiatom research could prove an innovative key to improving efficiency of desalination

Water recycling is one of the most important topics in urban water, and also one of the most difficult. Today we discuss why the engineering is sometimes the easy part, and how engaging with communities is where the real work of water recycling begins.

What makes America's stars and stripes so special? Plus, sewer water is key to solving the shortage of drinking water in El Paso, Texas. Then, after people get one of those DNA ancestry tests, they're more likely to call themselves “multiracial," and that worries researchers who study race and discrimination. Additionally, on today's show: domestic abuse starts with little acts of isolation called “coercive control,” dogs help scientists understand the secret lives of box turtles, and indigenous practices can improve Native American health.

On World Water Day, we talk water recycling with Stephen Katz, Market Development Manager at SUEZ Water Technologies & Solutions. The company, which built the Suez Canal in the 1860s is a leader in water recycling, particularly in industrial settings but also, increasingly, to augment local drinking water supplies. More than 2.7 billion people around the world experience water scarcity each year and climate change, along with growing human and farm animal populations, stresses available freshwater, which accounts for only 3% of the water on the planet. Katz explains how SUEZ processes wastewater and post-industrial water to return potable supplies for human use. In Morro Bay, Calif., the company is replenishing groundwater supplies with water recovered from the city's wastewater treatment facility -- the program provides drinkable water and prevents land subsidence (sinking) due to depleted aquifers. Katz also discusses the growing interest in water as a tradable commodity and the potential for higher prices as regions compete to acquire drinking water and increase to their industrial output. The World Bank projects that water shortages could reduce global GDP by as much as 6% by 2050. Low-income countries, which currently use only 8% of their water supply for industrial purposes, compared to high-income countries' 59% will struggle to grow their economies because of water shortages. Water desalination, another SUEZ line of business, is an energy-intensive answer in some parts of the world, but recycling remains the most accessible option.

Join Erin Andrews as she chats with Karen Schuett who is the CEO of Livestock Water Recycling in Calgary, they are completely eliminating manure lagoons off of farms. It may sound like a smelly job but their technology transforms a massive pool of water and manure into 3 clean byproducts: solid fertilizer, liquid fertilizer, and potable water (that is so clean it could be drinkable)We'll chat about what farmers are currently doing, why it's bad, and how her technology not only reduces GHG emissions by 80%, but also increases crop yields and makes farmers a whole lot more money out of a waste stream that typically costs them a ton of money to manage. Her solution to a typically damaging industry is truly mind-blowing, and people working in the agriculture industry must be included in out circular economy conversations.Connect with Livestock Water Recycling:Website: https://www.livestockwaterrecycling.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/LWR_IncFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/LWRincInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/lwr_inc/If you'd like to learn more about Impact Zero visit our website https://www.impactzero.ca/Support the show (https://impactzero.ca/donate)

Dr. Ladner had a chance to talk with Layne Carter from NASA recently. During his 28 years at NASA, Mr. Carter has worked on the development, design, delivery, and operation of the ISS Water Recovery System (WRS), which includes the Water Processor Assembly (WPA) and Urine Processor Assembly (UPA). His current role is the ISS Water Subsystem Manager, for which he is responsible for the ongoing operation of the water management and WRS on ISS. In addition, he is the co-Lead for NASA's Advanced Exploration Systems (AES) Wastewater Processing and Water Management team, which has the responsibility for developing the technologies to be used for NASA's future manned missions.  On this episode, you will learn, 1. How urine is recycled so astronauts can drink it. Yes, drink it. 2. How the Russians are helping with the Station's overall water balance, and 3. How urine brittle, not to be confused with peanut brittle, was a problem NASA had to overcome.
