Risk perceptions of water reuse schemes and their implications for governance regimes and scheme design

STREAM: Industrial Doctorate Centre for the Water Sector

Cranfield University

Cranfield University has an exciting research opportunity for a motivated graduate to explore how water customer perceptions of the risk of using recycled water might inform scheme design and regulation. Working closely with the project sponsor (Thames Water) and other organisations, the work will examine the future needs of existing and potential customers for the non-potable water supplied by the Old Ford water recycling facility which is situated on the Olympic Park site in London. The project will also engage with and inform the policy context for water recycling in the UK.
