Ian Douglas
Water Quality Engineer, City of Ottawa
When you open your tap, have you ever wondered: where the water comes from?
How did it get here? What exactly is in it? What controls its look, taste and feel? Drawing on observations made during a 30-year career in water quality, engineer Ian Douglas will explore the pursuit of safe drinking water, the importance of source water, and a behind-the-scenes look at what happens in a water treatment plant. The presentation will conclude with a discussion of some current challenges and issues in drinking water.
