Cambridge is actually a leader in water treatment technology. If you havent been to the water treatment plant alewife brook parkway, its nice for bike ride and walks as well as the inside is a systematic well organized filtering machine.
Cambridge actually has a very unique biological treatment section. It uses large colonies of bacteria to bascially grab the smaller colonies that pass through the other filtration processes. This is both a difficult balancing act as well as a great means to treat the water as the microbiological organisms do pull alot of nutrients, metals etc from the water. The result of balancing these bacteria ends up with secondary treatment levels being raised, prodominately the PH which last i heard was quite high (something like almost 9 compared to 7)
anyway, i've delt with them number of times and Northeastern has some professors and students that do grad work there.
