The Water Online Show: World Water Works

Affordability pressure is colliding with step changes in nutrient limits, and the default response of expanding plants is under scrutiny. In this conversation, Angela Godwin of Water Online speaks with Daniel Kutz of World Water Works about where intensification can replace expansion. Kutz contrasts approaches that target capital costs with those aimed at operating costs, and looks at how regions such as Colorado, the Pacific Northwest, and California are moving from BOD removal toward nutrient removal. He also addresses a practical question: how do you help utilities adopt technologies their operators have never run?

Watch to hear how he weighs risk and reward.
