This webcast will examine the application and challenges of water circularity for communities and industries. Water quality requirements for potable and industrial reuse significantly impact the treatment approach and cost. Management of emerging contaminants and microconstituents must be considered. Case studies will highlight the benefits and potential impediments to recycled water use.

Dr. Sundaram is a recognized global leader in water reuse with nearly 20 years of experience advancing One Water approaches, including potable water reuse solutions within the US and around the world by developing treatment technologies and working with communities to achieve cost-effective water sustainability. His doctoral research was on technology development and application of advanced treatment processes in indirect and direct potable reuse (IPR/DPR) applications. He is a passionate advocate and technical expert addressing social equity in water management and identifying synergies to minimize capital improvements and spending within the water sector. He served as the Chair for the Water Reuse Roadmap, A Water Environment Federation (WEF) publication. He most recently won the McKee Groundwater Protection, Restoration or Sustainable Use Award.
Lucy Pugh is a technical practice director for industrial water and wastewater at AECOM. She has developed and applied solutions to water and wastewater challenges in a broad range of industry sectors for more than 35 years. Lucy works with industries to reduce water use and advance wastewater reuse solutions to minimize their water footprint. Her experience includes process troubleshooting, treatability and pilot tests, design, construction, and operations support for removal of both conventional and emerging pollutants through application of biological and physical/chemical technologies. Lucy is also a member of AECOM's team that is developing and demonstrating DE-FLUOROTM electrochemical technology for PFAS destruction.
