Full scale demonstration of energy positive sewage treatment plant concepts towards market penetration (POWERSTEP)
Start date: Jul 1, 2015, End date: Jun 30, 2018,
The municipal wastewater in Europe contains a potential chemical energy of 87,500 GWh per year in its organic fraction, which is equivalent to the output of 12 large power stations. Due to the currently applied technologies and related energy loss at each process step, wastewater treatment in Europe today consumes instead the equivalent of more than 2 power stations. Many operators are thus target ...

Novel processing routes for effective sewage sludge management (Routes)
Start date: May 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2014,
The Routes project is addressed to discover new routes in wastewater and sludge treatment which allow:a) to prepare sludge for agricultural utilization by transforming it in a very clean and stabilized product regarding the presence of organic micropollutants (conventional and emerging ones) and of heavy metals, and with respect to hygienic aspects and to phytotoxicity;b) to minimize sludge produc ...
