SAFED, Israel (Reuters) – Israeli firm Applied CleanTech has developed a sewage mining system that picks out and recycles useful fibers from raw urban and industrial wastewater, increasing the efficiency of treatment plants and reducing the amount of unwanted sludge.
The company’s first commercial system, housed in a 17-tonne-shipping container, sits beneath the hillside town of Safed in northern Israel and sifts through sewage before it enters the municipal treatment centre.
