Abstract

This research reviews 18 areas of emerging technology that have the potential to reduce the need for purchased energy and could improve the wastewater industry’s ability to beneficially recover resources. The review includes an assessment of the technology’s current level of maturity and potential opportunities for adoption. The review also considers which wastewater treatment, solids stabilization, and energy generation technologies are of greater interest relative to established technologies.
