Waialee waste management system
This demonstration wastewater treatment system at CTAHR's Waialee Livestock Research Station on Oahu's North Shore uses the anaerobic biocarrier reactor and the biopottery-windmill pond cleanup system to clean milking parlor waste. In this energy-efficient system, the windmill pumps air into the open tank.
