![]() This is an interesting question, as stormwater typically does not have point-source concentrations of nutrients in it like wastewater does. But not all stormwater is created equal. Just look up-watershed and track the potential nutrient loading that could be happening. For example, is there heavy farming in the up-watershed region? In such a setting there is likely to be surges of nutrients. Say a storm event coincides with farm field fertilizer application. Or a flood irrigation system is inadvertently mishandled. And about a million other mishaps can explain why the downstream storm water pond occasionally becomes a flat-out carpet of algae. The occasional burst of phosphorus, and nitrogen too, makes management of stormwater ponds, and stormwater resource recovery, particularly challenging.
Here’s Where We Come In The BioHaven Water Resource Recovery (WRR) system could help here. From our perspective, for the Water resource recovery system to make sense, it must pay for itself with actual revenue. Clean(er) water is a byproduct. We believe it is fundamental for a water recovery system to pay for itself for several reasons, the primary of which is that it’s difficult for public officials to justify spending the volume of money needed to fix water, in the face of so many other pressing demands for that money. If we are really going to fix water, the water resource recovery system should do the following;
