Minimizing greenhouse gas emissions of an industrial wastewater treatment plant in terms of water–energy nexus

Abstract In this paper, (CO2) and methane (CH4) emissions of an industrial wastewater treatment plant were monitored. GHG emissions originated from treatment processes were considered as the direct emissions and determined using closed chamber method. GHG emission due to energy consumption was regar...
