In the latest episode of the Accelerating Action podcast, Nick Freeman (Engineering Manager) and Voon Chin (Planning Development and Completions Manager), both from John Holland sit down with the Australian Water Association to discuss the circular economy and its application to the water sector.
Circularity, often linked to sustainability, involves creating value from waste, such as transforming waste streams into useful products. Speaking to examples from John Holland projects, such as using worm farms to treat septic waste and co-digestion systems, Nick and Voon emphasise the importance of collaboration and innovation.
Challenges like cost, risk management, and the need for collaboration across industries are also discussed, with a particular focus on opportunities like food waste management, biogas reintegration, and hydrogen production as future directions for utilities and water treatment.
