Growing Impact: Solar-powered water treatment
On this episode of Growing Impact, I speak with Christine Kirchhoff, Kim Van Meter, and Hannah Wiseman, three researchers who aim to develop a database of wastewater treatment plans
Free QuoteExperts from 14 countries analyzed the potential for solar heat and photons for wastewater treatment in industry and municipal wastewater treatment. This article highlights the most promising outcomes. Eighty percent of the world's energy needs are met by fossil fuels.
On this episode of Growing Impact, I speak with Christine Kirchhoff, Kim Van Meter, and Hannah Wiseman, three researchers who aim to develop a database of wastewater treatment plans that are using solar energy. They also look to explore what drivers affect solar adoption and the resulting energy justice implications.
Because solar adoption at wastewater treatment plants is still relatively new, there is little known about these facilities, including where they are, what drove them to choose solar, and if solar has been a success. A team of researchers looks to fill in those gaps with a new project. If playback doesn't begin shortly, try restarting your device.
So in some cases, wastewater treatment facilities are— the municipalities are installing the solar on site and directly consuming that electricity. And many other scenarios, the municipality is entering what's called a power purchase agreement with a solar developer.
