Description

The objective of this research effort is to produce, evaluate, and summarize the cost, performance, and long-term reliability of coupling energy and water conservation technologies, modeling capabilities, and decision-support tools to reduce and optimize energy consumption in the treatment, conveyance, and use of water while utilizing water in the most efficient manner possible and in turn, increasing water supplies by virtue of reusing wastewater, stormwater, and preventing excess runoff. Outputs are sought that will include technical reports, journal articles, expert workshops, design models, and decision-support templates of benefit to the user community that consists of drinking water and wastewater utilities, state enforcement agencies, regulators, consulting engineers, and the academic community.
