I would like to Know the possibles uses of CO2 in a wastewater treatment plant.

Tamara, I found a reference (http://www.airproducts.co.uk/environmental/CO2.htm) to using CO2 for recarbonation and pH control. http://www.scientific.net/pdffile/56366.pdf looks interesting. http://www.patentstorm.us/patents/5798043-description.html talks about controlling the levels of CO2 to improve treatment efficiency.
