Introduction In recent years, the concept of the water-energy-food nexus has gained increasing attention from policymakers, researchers, and practitioners as a way to address the interconnected challenges of water, energy, and food security. The nexus approach recognizes that these three resources are closely linked and that changes in one sector can have significant impacts on […]

Electrodialysis reversal (EDR) is a membrane-based separation process that utilizes an electric field to transport ions across selective ion exchange membranes. This technology has gained significant attention in recent years due to its ability to remove various ions, including salts, from water streams in a highly efficient manner. In this article, we will delve into […]

In the realm of wastewater treatment, Low Pressure (LP) UV systems present an effective method for disinfecting water. These systems employ ultraviolet light to inactivate harmful microorganisms, including bacteria and viruses, which are often present in untreated wastewater. Unlike chemical disinfection methods, LP UV systems do not introduce any chemicals into the water, making them […]

Rotating Biological Contactors (RBCs) are an efficient means of treating wastewater through a biological process that involves microorganisms affixed to a rotating media. These systems are engineered to remove organic and nitrogenous waste from water by allowing microorganisms to come into contact with waste in the water. An RBC system consists of a series of […]
