Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resource recovery is an emerging societal need around the globe. Due to the ever-increasing pressures on increasingly limited environmental resources, it is critical that recovery of resources (water, nutrients, and energy) from waste streams be implemented. Moving Toward Resource Recovery Facilities is about moving away from waste streams and moving toward values streams. First providing an overview of the fundamental drivers for resource recovery from wastewater and presenting the basic case for resource recovery, the text provides an overview of state-of-the-art technological approaches to resources recovery and provides general guidance on the applicability of recovery technologies for the cross section of facility types. This allows facilities to take steps towards recycling a greater number of otherwise lost resources.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a compilation of State and local resource recovery projects. The survey included a review of published and unpublished literature, telephone and letter contacts, and selected site visits by EPA contacts assigned to monitor the activity of individual States or communities as indicated in the report. This report represents a summary of information acquired through this monitoring activity as of January, 1975. The information is presented as received and in many cases has not been analyzed for accuracy or completeness. In addition, some important resource recovery projects may not be included due to a lack of information.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sustainable Resource Management Learn how current technologies can be used to recover and reuse waste products to reduce environmental damage and pollution In this two-volume set, Sustainable Resource Management: Technologies for Recovery and Reuse of Energy and Waste Materials delivers a compelling argument for the importance of the widespread adoption of a holistic approach to enhanced water, energy, and waste management practices. Increased population and economic growth, urbanization, and industrialization have put sustained pressure on the world’s environment, and this book demonstrates how to use organics, nutrients, and thermal heat to better manage wastewater and solid waste to deal with that reality. The book discusses basic scientific principles and recent technological advances in current strategies for resource recovery from waste products. It also presents solutions to pressing problems associated with energy production during waste management and treatment, as well as the health impacts created by improper waste disposal and pollution. Finally, the book discusses the potential and feasibility of turning waste products into resources. Readers will also enjoy: A thorough introduction and overview to resource recovery and reuse for sustainable futures An exploration of hydrothermal liquefaction of food waste, including the technology’s use as a potential resource recovery strategy A treatment of resource recovery and recycling from livestock manure, including the current state of the technology and future prospects and challenges A discussion of the removal and recovery of nutrients using low-cost adsorbents from single-component and multi-component adsorption systems Perfect for water and environmental chemists, engineers, biotechnologists, and food chemists, Sustainable Resource Management also belongs on the bookshelves of environmental officers and consultants, chemists in private industry, and graduate students taking programs in environmental engineering, ecology, or other sustainability related fields.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2012, WEF adopted a new name for wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) - Water Resource Recovery Facilities (WRRFs) - with a vision to change the industry from an emphasis on treatment to one that maximizes recovery of valuable resources present in the wastewater. For example, resources that can be recovered or produced from wastewater include biogas, which can be utilized via combined heat and power (CHP) systems to generate electricity; fertilizer-grade nitrogen and phosphorus via struvite crystallization; reclaimed water for non-potable and potentially potable uses; fertilizer-grade biosolids; and potentially bioplastics. Many reports and peer-reviewed publications have mused about the concept of resource recovery, and specific processes have been evaluated that could be employed to produce specific products. However, little-to-no attention has been given to the analysis and evaluation of real, place-based WRRF scenarios. Real WRRF examples and scenarios that present and analyze environmental and economic impacts/benefits are needed. This study does exactly that re-envisioning the City of Twin Falls, Idaho WWTP as a WRRF. Twin Falls has several proximate industrial waste streams that could be beneficially leveraged for enhanced resource recovery - from such industries as Chobani, Glanbia, and Lamb Weston, as well as dairy operations, among others. Instead of pre-treating these waste streams, bypassing the resource recovery opportunity, this study integrates these resource streams into a re-envisioned Twin Falls WRRF. To facilitate development of WRRF scenarios in this study, we employed the SUMO© model (Dynamita Process Modeling) to evaluate and assess resource recovery alternatives leveraging four proximate waste streams: dairy manure, and industrial wastewaters from TASCO, Chobani, and Lamb Weston. A base model of the existing Twin Falls WWTP was developed and calibrated utilizing facility operational data. Environmental life cycle assessment was performed using the EPA TRACI model to assess the sustainability of several configurations that integrate different combinations of resource recovery technologies. The overall goal was to determine which combination of resource recovery technologies and proximate waste streams would be optimal for the Twin Falls WRRF. Several of the studied alternatives presented positive benefits, both environmentally and economically. Environmental benefits were largely due to the use of power produced onsite via CHP offsetting power produced from the grid. This result was surprising, as the fuel sources used for electricity production by Idaho Power are approximately only 25% fossil fuel based. Struvite production onsite was found to have some positive environmental impacts due to an offset of mineral fertilizer use. The effects of chemical production used in struvite production, however, had a relatively high quantity of associated emissions, resulting in a net environmental loss. This study also found that the environmental benefits of phosphorus removal were miniscule in the prevention of eutrophication of water.
