Cheaper. Better. Faster. Most people will say you can’t have all three. But don’t tell that to Dr. Jianmin Wang, a professor of civil, architectural and environmental engineering at Missouri University of Science and Technology.
Wang has created a wastewater system “in a box.” Each system, built by re-purposing a shipping container, is low power, low maintenance and highly efficient. Built from weathering steel, these containers are designed to be tough and can be dropped on site by helicopters.
