Project Description: 

Currently, Local Bounti's Pasco, WA site has designed their controlled environment agriculture (CEA) facility to use 100 percent potable water. Pasco, WA wastewater treatment facility (WWTP) discharges their disinfected secondary effluent into the river for disposal. The project aims to evaluate the viability of using reclaimed wastewater from Pasco, WA WWTP and design a system to supply, store, and deliver the reclaimed wastewater to the site. One of the main focuses is to explore the use of reclaimed wastewater in foggers and evaporative cooling systems.
