Learn how Nashville reclaims water and valuable nutrients from the wastewater treatment process and generates methane gas for energy use. This sustainable recycling process benefits the neighborhood, the environment, and the local economy. Using naturally occurring microbes, the biosolids facility produces an organically rich, slow-release fertilizer, called Music City Gold, used by farmers and home gardeners to improve the health of the soil. Sonia Allman with Metro Water Services will explain the complete process and how it benefits the environment and contributes to the livability of surrounding neighborhoods and the downtown section of the Cumberland River Greenway.
