We can’t talk about wastewater without also talking about carbon. So on today’s wastewater wednesday, Aquacycl’s CEO and Co-Founder, Orianna Bretschger, explains the relationship between wastewater and carbon and why going about business as usual with our wastewater practices will lead to devastating climate effects.

Only 20% of wastewater is treated globally. Moving and treating water and wastewater on a global scale is responsible for more GHG emissions than the entire shipping industry – wastewater treatment is responsible for nearly 60% of these emissions. Carbon is at the forefront of climate and sustainability conversations these days but a major portion of our global carbon output comes directly from wastewater treatment. That is why Aquacycl is working to revolutionize the world of wastewater with our treatment system that releases a fraction of carbon emissions than traditional wastewater treatment systems.
