Water for Baseload Power-A Revamp of the Nation's Nuclear Water Use Data

Providing approximately 20% of total U.S. electricity generation each year from a fleet of only 54 plants (94 reactors) nationwide, the nuclear sector is characterized by large and locally impactful power generating facilities. About half of existing reactors rely on once-through ...

Electrocoagulation for Water Recycle and Resource Recovery from Farm Wastewater

The goal of this proposed project is to use an electrochemical process to recover ammonia as struvite, a slow-release fertilizer, from real dairy-farm wastewater and recycle the treated water for animal cooling, feeding, cleaning, or irrigation. The produced solid fertilizer (bulk...

Monitoring, Planning, and Management of Water Quality and Quantity for Resilient Water and Energy Systems

Both resilient systems where water is used for energy production and energy is used for treatment and operation depend not only on the quantity of water, but also quality and environmental health. Addressing gaps in environmental health and infrastructure condition/capability data...

Advancing Energy-Water Resilience in Alaska, Hawaii, and U.S. Territories

Challenges facing Alaska, Hawaii, and U.S. Territories for both "energy for water" and "water for energy" are distinctive from the contiguous U.S. In this whitepaper, we discuss opportunities for new hydropower development and non-traditional water-energy linkages in these regions...
