On the afternoon of Wednesday October 16, join Materevolve for a cross-learning opportunity and Waste Water Treatment Plant Tour in Sausalito, California.

Learn about the different stages of waste water treatment processing and the challenges that waste water treatment plants face in managing persistent pollutants like PFAS and microfibers.
