This technology provides a wide range of benefits including ammonia treatment, GHG emissions reductions and green hydrogen generation. It provides significant financial and environmental upsides, while effectively treating ammonia and mitigating nitrous oxide emissions.
At this webinar, you will receive an informative overview of the practical applications and potential innovation and WaterRA research projects resulting from this partnership.
Key aspects of the collaboration include:
1. Collaborative Research Endeavours: Explore its potential applications, environmental and economic benefits. Delve into collaborative research and innovation efforts that have underpinned the development of the AmmEL-H2TM technology.
2. International Pilot: Gain insights from international works, featuring a case study from Vancouver. Understand how these global perspectives contribute to the applicability and relevance of the AmmEL-H2TM technology.
3. Australian Application: Discover how the collaboration aligns with the water industry’s circular economy priorities and potential Australian applications. The webinar will include topics such as green hydrogen production, greenhouse gas mitigation, and sustainable chemical generation within the broader context of wastewater treatment and meeting Australian environmental performance targets.
Join us for an insightful discussion on these developments and their implications for the evolving landscape of wastewater treatment and circular economy research and development.
This event is FREE and exclusively for WaterRA Utility members and Scaling Green Hydrogen CRC partners.
