Fracking Disclosures Show Widespread Use Of Hazardous Chemicals
Fracking, short for hydraulic fracturing, is a process in which workers inject fluids underground under high pressure. The fluids fracture coal beds and shale rock, allowing the gas and oil trapped within the rock to rise to the surface. Advances in fracking launched a huge expansion of U.S. oil and gas production starting in the early 2000s but also triggered intense debate over its health and environmental impacts.

Methods To Control Odors From Anaerobic Digester Plants And Prevent Nuisance To Nearby Communities
Anaerobic digestion is a practical and efficient technology to utilize considerable amounts of organic waste from intensive animal production and food processing and wastage during distribution/consumption, municipal waste, etc. to produce methane gas for electricity generation, local/process heating, and direct injection into the gas supply network.

How To Balance Dissolved Oxygen Levels For Maximum Efficiency
While dissolved oxygen (DO) levels are critical considerations in aerobic wastewater treatment processes, not every application maintains a consistent level of demand. How industrial wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) track and fulfill those needs make a big difference in the optimum performance and cost-efficiency of their operations.

The Upside Of Being Compelled To Treat Wastewater
No one enjoys being compelled to do things, especially when it dips into their wallet. For many in the industrial manufacturing and food processing sectors this is exactly what wastewater management is to them — a compulsory, bottomless money pit dug by regulatory bodies, seemingly just to make things difficult for business owners.
WATER AND WASTEWATER SOLUTIONS FOR THE POWER GENERATION INDUSTRY

Desalination And Power Plants—An Ideal Partnership?
A partnership between power and desalination plants may be the solution to drinking water scarcity. Researchers are working on a new system that can create potable water using a low-temperature desalination process powered by waste heat from a waterless power plant cooling system.

Waste Heat Recovery For Desalination From Steam Power Plants
Currently, in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia about 1.5 million barrels of oil are consumed daily to generate electricity to drive reverse osmosis desalination plants. This represents about 15 percent of KSA’s daily oil production.

Can Co-Locating Utilities Solve The Water-Energy Nexus?
Resources being a scarce commodity, it’s incumbent upon us to optimize the use of water and energy as best we can. While conservation is the prime course of action for the public, the best solution for utilities may be to work smarter — by having the water-energy nexus work for us instead of against us.

How Farms Can Tend To The Energy-Water Nexus, Reduce Costs, And Help Their Communities
Across the country, farmers face unrelenting pressure to conserve both water and energy. From California to Texas, recent droughts and declining groundwater levels require more pumping to provide irrigation water for crops. Pumping water takes energy, as do many other precision agriculture tasks involved in running a successful farm today. This symbiotic relationship between water and energy use — often called the energy-water nexus — is taking its toll on America’s agricultural industry.
