WT Framework for decision making.png

About this project

Goal of the project

The main goal of this project is to develop a mathematical framework for finding the most feasible technology or sequence of technologies for recovering specific resources from various urban wastewater streams.

Link with theme's Energy, Water and Vitality

Central to the mathematical model is the recovery of resources including thermal and chemical  energy and water.

Professorships and/or organizations involved

This project is part of the PhD research from Wageningen University and Research, which is financed partly by the NEREUS (New Energy and Resources from Urban Sanitation) project and partly by HZ University of Applied Sciences. The  NEREUS project falls under the Interreg 2 Seas program 2014-2020 co-funded by the European Regional Development Fund under subsidy contract No 2S03-011.

Role and ambition of stakeholders involved

The ambition within the NEREUS project is to develop a decision support tool that can help various stakeholders to find the optimal technical solution for resource recovery from urban wastewater in decentralized concepts.

Urban wastewater, as the carrier of various wastes, is considered to be polluted and it should always be treated before discharge. However, scientific experience and technological innovations have been proving that some of these pollutants have actual value and thus can be recovered and used as resources (Roeleveld, Roorda, and Schaafsma 2010). Finding the suitable technological solution for resource recovery (energy, nutrients and water) from urban wastewater is not yet straightforward, often due to technical, economic and legislative challenges (Holmgren et al. 2014). Varying quality and quantity of different urban wastewater streams as well as the environmental impact due to the consumption of energy and chemicals are challenging decision makers when choosing suitable technologies and locations for end–of-pipe solutions (Khiewwijit 2016; Muga and Mihelcic 2008). Moreover, social aspects, such as acceptance of recovered products in the market, play an important role when choosing a technology for resource recovery (Bixio et al. 2006; Drosg et al. 2015). There is plenty of experience with decision making for water and wastewater treatment (Hamouda, Anderson, and Huck 2009) but almost nonexistent for resource recovery from wastewater. The overall project runs until June 2020 but students are needed to help with work in every semester up until that time.
