OSTI ID:6378891

A methodology for determining total energy requirements of municipal-wastewater treatment plants is needed to satisfy requirements of EPA's regulation pertaining to energy effectiveness of alternative technologies. Embodied energies of construction materials and consumable chemicals represents a significant energy demand. Both computer and manual literature searches were performed, and interviews were conducted with knowledgeable individuals to identify and evaluate promising new methods of estimating these embodied energies.
