In this role she oversaw the development and implementation of passive natural treatment technologies for projects across the globe. In the rapidly evolving and expanding markets of water quality services and green infrastructure, Ludlow has developed extensive, diverse market experience. She has guided projects such as the design of large-scale natural wastewater treatment facilities, the beneficial reuse of municipal and industrial landfills, and the greening of industrial facilities for sustainable stormwater management.
