00:29:23 - Ellen Edenfell from NSVA talked about the Oceanhammen district and RecoLab in Helsingborg, Sweden, where a separate wastewater system has been implemented. She shifted the topic from circular water to circulair resources in the built environment. "Wastewater contains so much good, in terms of water but also in terms of nutrients," she stated. "Even though there are difficulties, and even though it can be challenging, don't let that stop you: it is possible to do it. The cooperation is key, really push for it and drive for the change that will be needed."
