Is releasing wastewater into the Missouri River harmful to the environment?
No, all of the wastewater is thoroughly processed. After treatment, three types of byproducts are formed. Biosolid is a sludge that is generated during treatment and all of that is applied to agricultural land as a fertilizer. It also creates a gas, which is burned to heat the digesters or is destroyed in the waste gas burners of the Wastewater Treatment Plant. The treated wastewater is also a byproduct, which is dumped into the Missouri River.
