Most people don’t think twice about what happens to wastewater once it leaves their home.
“People tend to ignore the fact that the water we have on this planet is all that we have—we don’t get any new water,” said Rajesh Seth, a University of Windsor environmental engineering professor. “Every town or city—small or big—generates wastewater, so finding better ways of dealing with wastewater is very important.”

“It’s fair to say that water distribution, like electricity distribution, has historically been quite ‘dumb,’” says Rupp Carriveau, a professor of civil and environmental engineering at the University of Windsor. “If there’s a leak in the water system, you often only know about it if someone is flooded out.”
