REWAISE
REWAISE will create a new “smart water ecosystem”, to embrace the true value of water, reducing freshwater and energy use, and recovering nutrients and materials from wastewater. Coventry University, in partnership with Severn Trent Water and Organics Ltd. is focusing on the recovery and conversion of ammonia in wastewater to green hydrogen. At the heart of the technology is a coated electrocatalyst designed to oxidise ammonia and generate low cost hydrogen for power generation. The results will contribute to a reduction in the carbon footprint of the wastewater treatment cycle and potentially help deliver the carbon pledges of the water companies involved in the project.
