Appliance Recycling Centers of America, Inc. today announced that Xcel Energy has selected the Company to continue providing appliance recycling services for the utility's Refrigerator and Freezer Recycling Program through December 2018. Since 2009, ARCA has recycled approximately 60,000 energy-inefficient appliances for Xcel Energy residential customers in Colorado, Minnesota and New Mexico.
Global leader Premier Tech Aqua (PTA), the Environmental Technologies Group of Premier Tech, celebrates 20 years of innovation in water preservation and product development by expanding its leading-edge and ecological onsite wastewater treatment Ecoflo Biofilter product line, by introducing its newly NSF-certified Ecoflo Coco Filter.
Purestream Services, LLC, announced the company's latest technology deployment of a thermally efficient wastewater treatment AVARA vapor recompression system at a commercial waste water disposal facility in Warren, Pennsylvania.
Light emitting diodes are used in a great number of products like televisions and lamps or luminaires. Moreover they are penetrating the automotive lighting market to an ever greater degree. Nevertheless, there are no suitable recycling processes available today for these items. Researchers have developed a method to mechanically separate LEDs.
Biogas from human waste, safely obtained under controlled circumstances using innovative technologies, is a potential fuel source great enough in theory to generate electricity for up to 138 million households - the number of households in Indonesia, Brazil, and Ethiopia combined.
According to the United Nations Environmental Programme, an estimated 50 million tons of electronic waste are generated around the world every year. What's more, the metal deposits found in many types of e-waste can be 40 to 50 times richer than the raw ore extracted from mines. One ton of gold ore, for example, yields 5 grams of gold, on average. However, approximately 150 grams of gold can be found in one ton of phone circuitry.
Wastewater treatment plants can benefit from a new chemical oxygen demand (COD) analyzer that will provide plant engineers with another tool to monitor water quality and prevent environmental contamination.
Fish farming is the largest source of phosphorus emissions in Norway, generating about 9,000 tonnes a year. Finding ways to reuse the waste from the fish farming industry could cut consumption of this important and increasingly scarce resource.
Estimated electricity production from the total waste generated in Africa could reach 122.2 TWh in 2025, or more than 20% of the electricity consumed in 2010 at continental level (661.5TWh), according to a JRC co-authored study which analysed the potential of urban solid waste for Africa’s electricity needs.
The MBR REMEB project arises from research in the field of low cost recycled ceramic membranes to develop a water treatment that combines biological treatment with membrane technology, specifically in a membrane bioreactor (MBR).
