Chestermere, AB partnered with local companies to pilot green approaches to sewage treatment
The City of Chestermere partnered with MAGNA Engineering and Eco-Growth Environmental Inc. to pilot green approaches to sewage treatment. The wastewater processing pilot involves using engineered wetlands and dehydration technology as environmentally sustainable ways to handle municipal waste. The engineered wetlands treat liquid waste to raw water quality which can be safely recycled. The dehydration process turns solid waste into fuel, fertilizer, and building material.
