Description
The
goal of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to conduct research,
development, and deployment on technology innovations that enable advanced water
resource recovery systems.
Topic
Area 1 of this FOA seeks to advance the development of transformative
technologies beyond early stage research and development (R&D) to become
pilot ready (TRL 4-6).
This
Topic Area will fund R&D (TRL 4-6) on transformative, cost competitive
technologies capable of harnessing the energy content of water and wastewater
throughout the energy-water nexus, incorporating water reuse, and considering
configurations to integrate alternative energy, where appropriate. This Topic
Area seeks innovative technologies and approaches that have the most potential
to transform existing water and wastewater treatment systems into advanced water
resource recovery systems that dramatically reduce net energy requirements at a
national scale
Topic
Area 2 of this FOA seeks to test currently developed, pilot ready technologies
(TRL 6-7) though design, build, and operations in industrially relevant
conditions to enable commercialization.
This
Topic Area will fund the design, build, and operations of pilot ready
technologies (TRL 6-7) that are capable of harnessing the energy content of
water and wastewater throughout the energy-water nexus, incorporating water
reuse, and considering configurations to integrate alternative energy, where
appropriate. The projects in this topic will validate and verify the performance
of their advanced water resource recovery systems at pilot scale.
There
is a minimum 20% cost share requirement for all projects.
