S4E12 - Could we Please Stop Burning Industrial Wastewater? This is Much Better! - a podcast by Antoine Walter

with 🎙️ Steven De Laet, CEO & Founder of Inopsys 

💧 Inopsys provides mobile & modular side stream on-site solutions for the chemical and pharmaceutical industry.

What we covered: 

🔥 How many industrial wastewater streams still get incinerated nowadays (and how they sometimes make long routes before!)

💸 How the unsustainable solution isn't even the cheapest one 

🌱 How onsite treatment of industrial wastewater has welcome side-effects (and how CoVid helped to bring those in clear sight) 

🧮 How Inopsys offers a one-to-one replacement to industrial wastewater incineration with its DBFOM approach

🍎 How everybody talks about entrepreneurship, sustainability, and circular economy but not everybody walks the talk

🍏 How in target industries, regulation is not the main driver anymore (and what it is instead)

🍎 How in further verticals, sustainability is still a competitive disadvantage

🍏 How Inopsys deals with inquiries and why they target the most challenging hazardous waste streams

🧮 How an agnostic approach to treatment technologies is the best way to treat the "industrial soup"

🟥 How focusing on the streams, anyone else desperately tries to avoid places you aside from the Water Industry's red ocean

🏭 How Inopsys' first reference went frontally against what they stated in their business plan!

🍏 Treatment modularity, operating in clusters, building trust to allow "someone in your kitchen," finding early adopters... and much more!

🔥 ... and of course, we concluded with the 𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙞𝙙 𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚 𝙦𝙪𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 🔥
