Cities use large amounts of costly energy to supply water and treat
wastewater, especially in China, one of the world's largest
providers of urban water and sanitation services. Reducing Energy
for Urban Water and Wastewater shows how cities can reduce energy
use, cut costs and curb greenhouse gas emissions. First, it guides
the reader through water supply and wastewater treatment,
explaining how energy is used at each step. Then the authors: *
Outline the most effective ideas for reducing energy use in cities,
using China as a case study. * Provide a decision-making framework
to help cities focus their efforts. * Investigate an
often-overlooked high energy user in dense cities and suggest a way
to cut energy. * Assess the unintended downside of stricter
wastewater standards and how to optimise the upside. * Provide
suggestions for increasing water and energy recovery in
water-scarce cities. The focus throughout is China, the biggest
greenhouse gas emitter in the world.
