Waste Water Treatment

Wastewater treatment involves aeration and heat that is approximately 70% of the cost of the process. Utilizing the methane by-product to create hydrogen and using the oxygen by-product for aeration can largely eliminate the cost of mechanical aeration using outside air. The substantial heat by-products of the electrolysis in both the fuel cells and on-site running motors can heat the water to achieve a 92% efficiency rate. The resulting hydrogen not utilized on site can be distributed for other municipal uses including fuel cells and municipal transportation. Adding solar and wind power to supply the electrolysis will net a carbon negative operation and cut costs by 40%.
