ABSTRACT

Wastewater is considered a reservoir of opportunity to save money and is classified as either residential, commercial, or industrial. With each classification, we have the ability to harvest a resource and recover minerals, fertilizer, and energy. This session will summarize and illustrate practical resource recovery methods for each classification, as well as future opportunities (regulatory mandates) using today’s technology such as biological and mechanical solutions.
