Breaking water carbon nexus by the natural biological system: ultimate solution for ESG challenges

Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 May;30(23):64736-64746. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-26916-3. Epub 2023 Apr 17.

Abstract

Clean water supply has become an enormous challenge in pursuance of the global warming process. Water technologies have traditionally created carbon emissions and chemical reactions that pollute the landscape, aquifers, and the air. The need for carbon footprint reduction and corporate ESG consideration has led to adopt a more environmentally friendly water treatment and management system. The Natural Biological System (NBS) is a nature-based technology for sewage and waste stream treatment and management, rehabilitating affected water bodies, reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and rebalancing eco-systems. The NBS is a patent-tailored solution with the ability of large-scale water treatment and a negative carbon footprint promoting the user ESG rating. From Chile to India, the NBS is changing the global water-energy equation, reducing dependence on energy and maintenance, freeing up valuable water resources for on-site usage, and restoring nature's ability to preserve and protect itself and to stop the escalating climate change effects.
