Treating wastewater and sewage sludge produces direct greenhouse gas emissions, including methane and nitrous oxide, which have far greater warming potential than carbon dioxide. As society increasingly adopts renewable energy sources over fossil fuels, these emissions are expected to become the leading source of greenhouse gas emissions for wastewater utilities.
This expert-led webcast series is designed for wastewater professionals looking to deepen their understanding of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from wastewater treatment processes. Consisting of four 1-hour sessions, the series will cover the types and sources of GHGs from wastewater treatment, the process conditions and mechanisms that drive these emissions, real-world approaches to measuring, monitoring, and quantifying these emissions, and practical strategies for reducing them.
This final webcast in the series will focus on strategies for reducing both N2O and CH4 emissions at wastewater treatment facilities. Abatement of CH4 will focus on preventative maintenance and improved methane capture. N2O reductions will focus on integrated monitoring and process optimization and other emerging technologies for direct capture and destruction. The presenters will share strategies for mitigating nitrous oxide and methane emissions at treatment facilities. They will also help attendees to understand how to implement emission reduction strategies within their professional roles.
