The Raw Materials Plant: high-tech developments
Raw materials are becoming scarce, so we need to think circularly and minimise waste. That is why the Dutch water authorities are working in numerous ways to transform wastewater treatment plants into 'factories' where clean water, clean energy and valuable raw materials are produced. In doing so, they contribute to a cleaner, sustainable world. A world with as little waste as possible, and with as much clean energy and reusable raw materials as possible.
