New Urban Waste Water Directive of the European Union from 2024

- Implications for operators of wastewater treatment plants -

The European Union's new Urban Wastewater Directive (EU-WWWD) stipulates that all plants with a population equivalent of 10,000 PE or more must have a fourth treatment stage by 2045. The nitrogen and phosphorus limits for plants with a population equivalent of 10,000 or more will be tightened. The plants must achieve energy neutrality and strive to reduce greenhouse gases, in particular nitrous oxide (laughing gas) N2O.

Energy optimisation at wastewater treatment plants - where is there still untapped potential?

The energy requirements of wastewater treatment plants are not a new topic. In practice, however, it is clear that there is still potential for improving energy efficiency in the technical systems and in the operation of these plants. The new Urban Wastewater Directive makes this topic even more relevant. Examples are used to explain where it may be worth taking a closer look at both the consumption and generation of energy.

International reference plant: KA Göhren (island of Rügen)

Reconstruction and expansion of the biological treatment process at the Göhren island wastewater treatment plant

The Göhren wastewater treatment plant (Rügen) has always been subject to seasonal loads of up to 400%. In 2021, Göhren had to be rebuilt during ongoing operations due to the outdated aeration system and an urgent expansion of the plant's capacity. The result is impressive: 42 electricity cost savings despite a 50% increase in capacity from 30,000 PE to 45,000 PE

Efficient and sustainable aeration systems for biological wastewater treatment

The requirements for modern aeration systems go far beyond the technical solution of simply providing the required oxygen. Today, new aeration systems should not only be optimised for energy efficiency, but also designed to be sustainable in many respects, for example with regard to the carbon footprint, service life, choice of materials and possible reuse.

The intelligent system solution for a smart wastewater pumping station

The pumping of untreated wastewater is becoming increasingly difficult due to the increased occurrence of solids and fibres and therefore leads to higher operating costs
