Winter Talk - Poo to Power

For 10 years until 2019 David worked for Thames Water (TW), as a Combined Heat and Power (CHP) Specialist.  He was engaged in a series of projects to replant CHP at 12 of 24 sites with modern and efficient engines.  Thames Water presently generates over 280 GWh per year of electricity consumption from sewage.

David is going to review the sewage business and discuss:

• ·         How did sewage treatment develop
• ·         How do we treat sewage today
• ·         What energy value does sewage have
• ·         Where do Thames Water operate
• ·         How much do Thames water generate
• ·         Future developments
