The article highlights a collaborative project in Santa Fe where Clean Aqua Solutions is working with Sandia National Laboratories and the Paseo Real Wastewater Treatment Plant to develop a new approach to water treatment using algae. The system is designed to remove excess nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus from treated water before it is released, helping reduce the risk of algal blooms and environmental damage in local waterways.
The project serves as a real-world testing site for scaling this technology, showing how algae can be used as a cost-effective and more sustainable alternative to traditional chemical-based treatment methods. In addition to improving water quality, the effort also demonstrates the potential for broader applications across municipal and industrial systems, while supporting workforce development and ongoing research in the growing field of algae-based solutions.
