A group of researchers says they have shown that a transition to green wastewater-treatment approaches in the US, away from greywater treatment, could save $15.6 billion and just under 30 million tonnes of CO2-equivalent emissions over 40 years. The findings from Colorado State University were published in Nature Communications Earth and Environment in what’s described as a first-of-its-kind study.

With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.
