After more than two years of experiments New Mexico still hopes oil and gas wastewater could be re-purposed outside of the industry for uses like watering crops.

In 2018, The Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board commissioned a study to determine whether the wastewater produced during petroleum extraction could be used to safely irrigate fields. The study was prompted by concerns from legislators and the public after learning that the water that surfaces at oil and gas wells, called produced water, had already been pumped for decades to a water district north of Bakersfield, where it had been treated and blended with fresher water before being provided to growers for irrigation.

As companies that drill for oil and natural gas using hydraulic fracturing consider recycling and reusing wastewater that surfaces from wells during the fracking process, chemists at The University of Toledo discovered that the new and unexplored waste contains many environmental contaminants including organic chemicals and metallic elements. This is news?

The Department of Energy announced plans to build the nation’s first-ever facility to extract rare earth minerals from fossil fuel waste, an effort that could be transformative in powering clean energy technology in the United States.

At the end of his first full year in office, Joe Biden’s disastrous energy and environment agenda cannot be said to be fully dead. With Republicans looking likely to reacquire strong majorities in both houses of Congress in November’s midterm elections, whatever hasn’t passed by Election Day will safely be declared officially dead then.

The basis of the N4WPP (the Navajo Technical University (NTU)-New Mexico Tech (NMT) Navajo Nation Water Purification Project) partnership is water filtration technology that was developed at NMT for treating produced water in oil fields.
