Our next-generation wastewater treatment system will minimize sludge and food wastes, and enable the recovery of valuable resources, including fertilizers, bioplastics, ethanol, hyphae-sheets and carbon fiber films, from the wastewater treatment process for sustainable water pollution control in major cities. Our novel integrated system consists of:

1. Iron(III) enhanced primary sedimentation

2. Acidogenic membrane bioreactor

3. Primary sedimentation tank

4. Activated sludge aeration basin

5. Secondary clarifier

6. Fungal fermentation

7. Biosynthesis reactor
