Tarihi

Wastewater treatment plants are held accountable by The 2004 Greenhouse Gas Protocol Initiative for their emissions of greenhouse gases by the use of electricity to treat wastewater. For example, energy is required for the aeration process that releases volatile compounds from the water, and also for the mixing and transportation of polluted and recycled fluid moving throughout the process. The electricity generation process itself necessary for wastewater treatment produces CO₂, CH₄, and nitrous oxide. The aerobic treatment step of the water releases N₂O and CO₂, similar to the particle settling step, and the activated sludge step releases both CO₂ and methane.

Mataki na laka da aka kunna a cikin maganin ruwa mai guba yana fitar da mahadi kamar methane da CO₂.

Microbes in wastewater have the potential to enhance mineralization of CO₂. Mineralization of CO₂ into CaCO₃ immobilizes CO₂ which prevent leakages by stabilizing underground pressure and reducing permeability of the cap rock. By Le Chatelier's principle, increasing Ca²⁺ availability and increasing pH will increase the rate of mineralization. Negatively charged surfaces on microbes have a high affinity for cations such as Ca²⁺ and, though metabolic function, increase saturation of CO₂ in solution. In addition, bacterial ureolysis (hydrolysis of urea) increases pH of the solution.
