Unlocking the energy-water interdependency through bio-augmented treatment of produced water for agricultural re-use and aquifer recharge

The supply and demand for energy and water within the US is increasingly intertwined. Several examples of this include the large volumes of water consumed by hydraulic fracking, the reliance of energy-intensive groundwater pumping in agriculture, and the significant water and powe...

Contaminants of Emerging Concern in Water Sources and Impacts on Water and Wastewater Treatment

This white paper examines the critical issue of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in water systems, emphasizing the need for advanced water reuse and reclamation technologies to mitigate water scarcity, particularly in arid and remote regions. These contaminants, which inclu...

Produced Water: A Potential Solution to Achieve America Energy Dominance

Produced water, a significant byproduct of oil and gas extraction, represents an underutilized water resource. However, the high salinity, presence of organics, and scale-forming compounds make it technically challenging to treat. Membrane desalination technologies suffer from fou...

Harnessing water system flexibility for grid resilience

With new critical infrastructure that require uninterrupted power supplies (such as data centers that support the AI boom) and a rising share of intermittent generation sources on the grid, there is a growing need for flexibility in grid resources which can ramp up or down quickly...
