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

S4E20 - 17 Decisive Insights that could Actually Impact the Water Industry

37min | 03/30/2022

Description

with 🎙️ Antoine Walter, Podcaster in Chief at GF Piping Systems – happy to share the key Water Industry Insights he collected for you over the past 6 months!

💧 19 guests shared 1’114 minutes of Wisdom in this Season 4. I dived a bit deeper in 17 of these learnings to add my pinch of salt!

What we covered:

#1 - We are building New York every month between now and 2050

#2 - The Water Industry underuses one of its most powerful tools: Hydraulic Modeling

#3 - PFAS are a 110€/Year Health Cost for each Human on Earth

#4 - There's a 4th phase of Water, and the Water Industry could leverage it

#5 - SuperCritical Water Oxidation: the Future of Wastewater Treatment?

#6 - There are 6 Strong Drivers for Water Sector Growth in Sub-Saharan Africa

#7 - Water can belong to strange market players

#8 - Are UV Disinfection Systems at Regulatory Risk?

#9 - There are billions of Water Assets that could reveal much about our Water Behavior

#10 - Green Algae could disrupt Activated Sludge Wastewater Treatment (for the better)

#11 - You can Cut Water Treatment Costs with Expensive Materials

#12 - Groundwater Trading could preserve the resource and increase its Yield

#13 - Green Hydrogen is not a game-changing opportunity for the Water Industry

#14 - Industrial Wastewater gets (astoundingly too often) still incinerated!

#15 - New Business Models open New Water Opportunities

#16 - Specialized Water SaaS can outperform horizontal behemoths (here's why)

#17 - 2023 will be a Crucial Year for Water

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

❓ Ever wondered how the #WaterIndustry was reacting to our World's Water Challenges? Water Scarcity? #SDG6? PFAS? Climate Change? Circular Economy? Digitization and Smart Water?

💪 Get the Water Market pulse for free. In one hour per week, while you do the dishes!

📈 We talk water investment, water tech, water entrepreneurship and water market with entrepreneurs, thought leaders, book authors, scientists, investment funds, VCs, and C-Level experts from water majors.

➡️ Leverage their insights, advice & experience and ensure to stay on top of best practices

🗓️ Tune in every Wednesday (don't miss out! 😅)

🌐 Find all the detailed episode notes, interviews, infographics, and more at http://dww.show

Currently in its 10th Season, the "(don't) Waste Water" podcast has already welcomed around 250 guests from Water Majors (SUEZ, Veolia, Jacobs, Xylem, Kemira, Evoqua, Aquatech, SKion Water...), Scale-Ups (Cambrian Innovation, Epic Cleantec, Gradiant, Liqtech, 374Water, Gingko Bioworks...), Start-Ups (Puraffinity, KETOS, 120Water, ZwitterCo, Membrion, Source...), Universities (Berkeley, the Columbia Water Center), Investment Funds (Sciens Water, Mazarine, Burnt Island Ventures...), Business Accelerators (Imagine H2O, Elemental...), Book Authors (Seth Siegel, David Sedlak, David Lloyd Owen...) or Market Intelligence Companies (BlueTech Research, Global Water Intelligence, World Bank, OECD, Isle Utilities...). Or simply water legends like Gary White, Mina Guli or Andrew Benedek!

On the "(don't) Waste Water" podcast, I strive to make the Water Industry easy to understand for everyone, starting with water professionals, executives, and investors. Hence, he opens the microphone to seasoned, inspirational water experts to discuss their field of excellence.

No one can claim an all-around in-depth understanding of a matter as complex as Water. But piece by piece, you can rebuild the puzzle. With curiosity, patience, and passion, Antoine Walter explores topics such as Advanced Treatment Technologies, Water-Energy Nexus (Hydrogen, Lithium...), PFAS removal, Nature-Based Solutions, Wastewater Reuse, Distributed Water Treatments, Water Finance, and Water Entrepreneurship.

I actually firmly believe that regular listeners of the "(don't) Waste Water" podcast may, in the end, claim a "Water MBA!"

A particular field of interest is how innovation forms, grows and gets widely adopted in a complex and conservative field like the Water Industry. This may be one of the keys to achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal n°6 - #SDG6.

Oh, and in short, about me: I'm a water engineer turned avid student of the water business, market, finance, and tech. I'm married, a happy father of three, and I'm French (nobody's perfect 😅).
