RMIT trial finds floating wetlands cut wastewater lagoon emissions 30%

RMIT publishes resultsEmissions cut by about 30% on average

The trial found the floating wetland reduced CO2 by up to 36%, methane by up to 66% and nitrogen by 18% compared with the control lagoon; researchers say the approach could be retrofitted into existing lagoons and are now testing it on farm dams and other settings, with water companies interested in further trials including PFAS removal.

“On a global scale, they produce roughly 700 million tonnes of greenhouse gases every year.”
