Sewage鈥攔efuse liquids or waste matter usually carried off by sewers鈥攊s at the front lines of a global movement for clean energy. Innovative U.S. cities are digging into their dirtiest depths to create new sources of power that optimize economic benefits, generate clean energy, and control pollution. This wastewater-to-power movement is just beginning to catch on in China. But with some of the largest and most densely populated cities in the world, the country could be poised to lead a  revolution.

In the fourth issue of the 乐鱼 体育鈥檚 China Environment Forum鈥檚 InsightOut series, six experts from the United States and China explore the potential of sludge power in Chinese cities and offer recommendations based on their experiences. The authors of 鈥淲aste Power: Can Wastewater-to-Energy Revolutionize Pollution Control and Clean Energy in Chinese Cities?鈥� argue that these solutions have the greatest potential for energy and pollution mitigation.
