This paper discusses the potential of the Clean Development Mechanisms (CDMs) for the commercialisation of the small- to large- scale Integrated Biogas System (IBS). IBS utilises a system approach for the efficient management and conversion of agro-industrial waste into clean biogas and organic fertilizer. The methane captured could either be used for electricity generation in large/medium commercial enterprises or used for cooking, lighting and heating hot water in small-scale community.

The new municipal wastewater treatment plant in Vienna (Austria) applies the newest standard of activated sludge processes to treat 98% of Vienna's wastewaters. On dry-weather days this is more than 500,000 m3. It takes about 20 hours for the wastewater to pass through the mechanical and the two biological purification (activated sludge) stages before it is purified and discharged into the Danube canal. The webpage of this plant contains also a lot of useful information on how this kind of treatment technology functions.

This report is aimed at companies and investors seeking to understand how they can play their part in delivering a water-secure world. It presents analysis of the 2017 CDP water response data from a sample of 742 of the world’s largest publicly-listed companies. It sets out what a water-secure world looks like, the private sector actions that will contribute to its achievement, and how companies are overcoming the barriers to water security – most importantly, the failure to properly value our fresh water resources in today’s economy.
