News on the world's most precious resource, including the latest in research, trends, and treatment advances
How Much Energy Exists in Wastewater?
Energy can be harvested from wastewater through anaerobic digestion, but just how much? Often, enough to power the treatment plant, with some left to sell.
Generating Power from Dairy Waste
