Tonight’s the night 🏆 The Trial Reservoir in a joint entry with VorTech Water Solutions has been shortlisted for the Groundbreaker Award in the Water Industry Awards 2024 which will be announced tonight in Birmingham. Recently VorTech Water Solutions collaborated with the Trial Reservoir and Xylem Innovation Labs to fulfil a successful trial of VorTech’s VPATM aeration system. The technology involved in the trial is an innovative wastewater treatment technology that reduces operational costs of membrane bioreactors by using vortex aeration. The trial wanted to solve problems with membrane fouling, poor oxygen transfer and low energy efficiency. Performance data were monitored during the trial period and the result concluded a 30% reduction in specific energy consumption and a 90% reduction in maintenance time and cost. This trial was a great success and is well deserving of this award nomination. Finally, the VPATM upgrade is estimated to deliver a total annual operation saving of 389% over a 20-year period! The Trial Reservoir is dedicated to its journey of accelerating innovation to mitigate climate change and this recent trial is no exception. We will be attending the award ceremony with VorTech Water Solutions tonight and celebrating the trials success at the event.

🌏💧 Last week, I had the privilege to experience Singapore International Water Week (SIWW). It was fantastic to connect with my amazing colleagues from Southeast Asia, many of whom I've known for years, but never met in person! I also engaged with forward-thinking investors and startups, and spoke to inspiring students who will shape the future of water. The innovations in water technology, especially the digital solutions, were truly impressive and hold great promise. I even had the chance to explore Singapore, a city beautifully designed with water management at its heart. And grateful for my food gurus, particularly my colleague Narain Madhavan and a few others, for bringing me along to indulge in South Indian cuisine. 💧🚀 #SIWW2024 #WaterInnovation #SustainableFuture #SingaporeAdventures

Last week, I had the opportunity to visit Singapore for the first time and explore its beautiful landscapes and impressive urban planning. Water plays a vital role in urban development, and so it’s no wonder Singapore is a leader across the water sector. Attending Singapore International Water Week (SIWW) with my team, Xylem Innovation Labs, was truly enlightening. During the event, we: 💡 Explored groundbreaking startups in membranes and digital water management ⚡️ Engaged in discussions with water investing experts on accelerating new technology to market 🫱🏽🫲🏾 Connected in person with amazing colleagues from the region whom I've collaborated with remotely for years A special thanks to PUB, Singapore's National Water Agency and Xylem Southeast Asia (SEA) for their warm hospitality and for organizing a remarkable week.

Real pleasure presenting at the EO Summit! The after lunch sessions on the final day can be tricky from an engagement point of view…..so I asked the audience for a wave to kick us off talking about water!
