Jacobs, in collaboration with Anglian Water and partners, is leading a project funded by Ofwat’s Innovation Fund to revolutionize wastewater treatment and produce green hydrogen. The project aims to drastically reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in the water sector, a key contributor to U.K.'s industrial emissions. By implementing innovative technologies like the membrane aerated biofilm reactor (MABR), the project targets an 85% reduction in energy use and addresses the issue of potent greenhouse gases in wastewater treatment. The green hydrogen produced through electrolysis can be used in various sectors, promoting sustainability. The project has received £4.6 million funding and has won prestigious awards for its contribution to achieving net zero carbon emissions. By demonstrating the viability of green hydrogen production at wastewater recycling centers, the project aims to accelerate the growth of the hydrogen fuel cell vehicle market and set a new industry benchmark for climate change innovation and collaboration.
