Advanced Energy Conversion, LLC will use congressionally directed funding through Department of Energy to develop an integrated turbine/generator system that would be installed in effluent channels of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). This equipment will be designed to be installed into existing WWTPs and allow the plants to generate a portion of their own electricity. Work being conducted under this project is strictly research and development, no actual installation or demonstration will be done.
