No Laughing Matter: Cause Of Nitrous Oxide In Wastewater Treatment Discovered
5/27/2025
Most wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) professionals know that nitrous oxide (N₂O), also known as laughing gas, is released from tanks during nutrient removal processes. This potent greenhouse gas is produced by the organisms that clean the water. The exact amount of laughing gas emissions change throughout the day and year, peaking in colder seasons. For years, the reason for this variation has been unknown, which has made it difficult to control.
