Innovia Technology’s Post

Hosepipe bans and water shortages are familiar to us at home, but what do they mean for businesses? In this project, we analysed the water usage for different energy pathways and showed how Shell’s R&D portfolio for water treatment technologies compared with research in other industries. A key perspective was the potential change in water availability arising from climate change and population growth. This study has helped Shell develop its global water management strategy.

How can eRINs help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and boost investment in rural America?   Check out our new video to find out! The Partnership for Electric Pathways breaks down the potential of the eRINs program—capturing methane from sources like small farms, landfills, and wastewater treatment plants and converting it into renewable electricity to power electric vehicles.    Let’s work together to encourage the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to approve eRINs and help pave the way for a cleaner, more sustainable future. https://lnkd.in/e8mcRxDe

Kudos to the Partnership for Electric Pathways for so effectively illustrating the importance of eRINs and their crucial role in the energy industry, environment, and rural economies. Biogas from landfills, wastewater plants, and farms can generate renewable electricity at a time when demand for power is higher than ever. It's time for the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) finally formalize the value of renewable electricity generated from methane emissions.

It's definitely Good News Friday here in the UK but across the pond, there's excellent news too: An exciting Process Emissions Webinar series upcoming from the great folks US Water Alliance and Canadian Water Network (CWN), kindly hosted by the The Water Research Foundation (WRF) and with support and inspiration from International Water Association, Water Environment Federation and the Danish Water Technology Alliance. This expert-led webcast series is designed for wastewater professionals looking to deepen their understanding of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from wastewater treatment processes. Consisting of four 1-hour sessions, the series will cover the types and sources of GHGs from wastewater treatment, the process conditions and mechanisms that drive these emissions, real-world approaches to measuring, monitoring, and quantifying these emissions, and practical strategies for reducing them. July 18, 3pm ET: Fundamental of Wastewater Process Greenhouse Gas Emissions September 5, 3pm ET: Methane Emissions from Wastewater Treatment October 31, 3pm ET: Nitrous Oxide Emissions from Wastewater Treatment December 12, 3pm ET: Opportunities for Process Emissions Reductions Check out more details https://lnkd.in/ga5qftGt Sign up for the first webinar on July 18th 2024 below - they are free but you need an account https://lnkd.in/gzWv3kcS David Ponder Ruqiao (Emma) Shen, PhD, P.Eng John Willis Jose C.

#WaterWednesday What does it mean to be a Net Zero Water building? According to the US Department of Energy, Net Zero Water aims to create a "water-neutral building where the amount of alternative water used and water returned to the original water source is equal to the building's total water consumption." To see Net Zero Water in-action, check out Pike's Peak Summit Complex in Colorado! https://lnkd.in/gqnddQTu #ImprovingLife #BetterBuiltEnvironments #NetZeroWater #PikesPeak

Just published in Nature Communications Earth & Environment - "The potential of carbon markets to accelerate green infrastructure based water quality trading," with Virridy co-authors Jason Quinn, Alex Johnson and Evan Thomas, PhD, PE, MPH. The abstract notes, "We find green infrastructure could save $15.6 billion dollars, 21.2 terawatt-hours of electricity, and 29.8 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions per year while sequestering over 4.2 million tonnes CO2e per year over a 40 year time horizon." This new article provides good context and support for the opportunity to catalyze larger-scale public investment in watershed resiliency that is presented by combining the Voluntary Carbon Market with domestic water quality markets. Kudos to Braden Limb on his leadership on analyzing this nuanced concept. #nature #journalarticle https://lnkd.in/gPqtHiCj
