Earth Month 2022

Are we drowning or parched?

It seems we have been talking about a ‘water crisis’ as long as most of us have been in the water business!? THIS is the year to address how decentralized options are the solution.

During Earth Month 2022, WasteWater Education 501(c)3 will be showcasing those solutions.

A review of pilot systems designed to integrate settling techniques, and horizontal subsurface flow in constructed wetlands for the treatment of wastewater.

One important study found that nearly 50 percent of existing coal-fired power plants have sufficient reclaimed water available within a 10-mile radius, and 75 percent have sufficient reclaimed water available within a 25-mile radius. DOE also concludes that we can significantly reduce the water dependency of power plants by switching to dry and wet-dry hybrid cooling technologies and by using alternative water sources instead of freshwater. This is powerful evidence of the enormous potential for energy companies and water utilities to work together to reduce the environmental impacts from – and the water-related vulnerabilities to – power plants.

In short, it’s time to stop wasting our wastewater and instead use it to protect our nation’s energy supply.”

Ennesys, a Paris-based energy systems company and OriginOil,
an American algae harvesting company just unveiled their new urban
algae demonstration project in La Defense, near Paris. The revolutionary
system harvests energy from algae present in wastewater while filtering
the wastewater for use as graywater.

Getting In The Spirit: Whisky Waste Being Turned To Energy

15-07-13(7)picCommercial operations have started at an 8.23MW whisky-to-energy facility that will have the ability to provide heat and power to around 9,000 homes.

The company running the facility, Helius Energy, have also revealed ambitious plans to develop a £300m, 10MW biomass plant at Avonmouth within the next few years.

The £60.5m biomass site, which is located in Speyside, Scotland, has already completed a successful trial period and was officially opened by Prince Charles in April. Of Scotland’s 100 whisky distilleries 50 are based in, or very close to, the location of the plant.
