The next in our series of episodes about water management, is a series of interviews with David Bristow, water engineer, expert witness and owner of the water services, training and engineering firm Simmonds & Bristow.

Two weeks ago Dave Whitfield interviewed Dr Aysin Dederkofut-Howes about Smart Urban Water, this week, Geoff Ebbs interviews David Bristow about some of the challenges to realising that ambition and how we overcome them.

The interview is in three parts:

  • the first part discusses the existing urban water system and the possibility of recycling,
  • the second part discusses current attempts to be smart about how we use water and what impact that has on our overall use and
  • the third part discusses mining the sewer for energy and nutrients.

You can catch the entire interview by visiting the playlist.
