The final part of our four-part Process Emissions Webinar 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 while N2O reductions will focus on integrated monitoring and process optimization and other emerging technologies for direct capture and destruction.
Speakers:
Ulrik Folkman, Danish Water Technology Alliance
Jessica Akande, Canadian Water Network
The Process Emissions Webinar Series is designed for wastewater professionals looking to deepen their understanding of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from wastewater treatment processes. 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. Consisting of four one-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.
The series is organized by the US Water Alliance and Canadian Water Network, hosted by The Water Research Foundation, and presented in collaboration with the Danish Water Technology Alliance, Water Environment Federation, and the International Water Association.
