Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
A New Technology Turns Food Waste and Poo into Power, Saving the Environment and Money
Food waste and sewage turn into greener energy? Sounds like dream has come true, doesn’t it?
A remote desert city in California unveiled a carbon-neutral wastewater treatment plant, first of the kind in United States. The anaerobic digestion technology system is going to convert food and sewage waste into biogas, which is usually burned and released into the atmosphere.
The new facility and system is projected be in operation by 2015, diverting more than 1,400 tons of waste. Reducing the waste and generating greener-than-ordinary fossil fuel sounds all right with anyone, doesn’t it?
Enjoy reading and learning about this innovative solution for food waste and sewage.
