This collection features 61 amazing drone clips in 4K UHD, providing cinematic excellence of a Thames Water Sewage Treatment Works in England. The footage highlights the essential process of treating wastewater, which includes removing large objects, filtering grit, and conducting primary, secondary, and final treatments before water is returned safely to rivers. The remaining organic solids, known as 'sludge,' are also treated and repurposed, often for agricultural land or used to generate renewable energy, a practice Thames Water has engaged in for over 50 years.

The scale of these operations is vast; Thames Water manages over 68,000 miles of sewers and treats 4,600 million litres of sewage daily from its 16 million customers. However, these sites have recently been prominent in news headlines. Research indicates that more than half of Thames Water's 351 sewage treatment works, particularly those outside London in smaller river tributaries, cannot handle the volume of sewerage they receive. This insufficient capacity often leads to untreated sewage discharges and storm overflows, significantly impacting river ecosystems. Despite Thames Water's claims of record investment to address ageing infrastructure, population growth, and climate change demands, issues persist, culminating in a record £122.7m fine from the regulator Ofwat for repeated rule breaches.

My drone clips offer a unique and raw visual insight into these crucial yet controversial sites. You'll witness the huge scale of the plant, including vast pools of dirty water, some appearing green or brown, with turbines and mixers working the water, and even scenes of broken-down or non-working pools. The smell on site is incredibly foul and disgusting, a sensory element not captured visually but inherent to these operations. The footage reveals how vast these underfunded sites are and what goes on here, showing trucks, buildings, and other machinery across the project's immense footprint, illustrating both the clean water treatment and the ongoing waste management efforts.

Footage Highlights:

• 61 drone clips in 4K UHD, offering cinematic excellence over a sewage treatment plant.

• Captures the vast scale of operations, including dirty water pools, working turbines, and broken-down sections.
