There it becomes clean water that is released into our urban rivers and Narragansett Bay.

Along the way, the water encounters biology, chemistry, and physics as it becomes cleaner.

“In any given year, over 2000 people visit one of our award-winning facilities for a tour,” said NBC Chairman Vincent Mesolella, “but during the pandemic, those educational opportunities weren’t possible."

"This video brings the fascinating process of cleaning water to everyone," he added. 

The video may be viewed on the NBC’s YouTube channel.
