“…In a downstream plant, river water was used as cooling water, and via the re-cooling plant legionella containing aerosols were released. Although this case showed specific boundary conditions, it proves, besides the issue of disinfectant application in re-cooling plants, once again the relevance of wastewater treatment in health protection and the need for a (further) development of respective technologies (Schaum & Cornel, 2016). Furthermore, pathogens resistant to antibiotics are in the focus of research, whereby research in wastewater treatment is only at its beginning regarding this topic.…”

“…This becomes obvious, particularly, when looking at the history of wastewater treatment (hygiene requirements), which, especially in the international context and in terms of safeguarding the access to sanitary facilities, is still vitally important. In addition to hygiene aspects, minimizing the input of micropollutants, nanoparticles and microplastics into the food chain is a crucial point from the perspective of (preventive) health care (Schaum & Cornel, 2016).…”

“…Depending on the quality of the raw water, the supply of drinking water requires different treatment processes, whereby energy consumption increases with increasing treatment steps (from basic mechanical processes as far as reverse osmosis). As the water demand, especially in metropolitan areas, exceeds its availability, long-distance pipelines are needed with respective increased energy consumption (Schaum & Cornel, 2016).…”

The field of supply and disposal in settlement structures is currently undergoing major changes. On the one side, the focus is on the user's supply with energy, water, and food/goods and on the other side it is on the disposal of wastewater and waste. Thereby, disposal includes recycling and disposal processes with respective treatment processes prior to recycling and disposal. In the past, via the construction of sewer systems leading to conventional wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) as end-of-pipe solutions for treating wastewater, fundamental interests of health and water protection have been met. The spread of diseases due to lacking sewers was most widely prevented, at least in the industrial nations. With the growing knowledge that wastewater ingredients, such as carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus, lead to silting, oxygen consumption, and eutrophication of waterbodies, wastewater treatment plants were implemented, thus increasing the quality of waterbodies significantly. However, the question is whether the objectives of sustainable wastewater treatment have been achieved this way. Research results in the fields of health and water protection as well as changes in society's ecological awareness (climate and resource protection)

Digesters as Heat Storage – Energetic Assessment of Flexible Variation of Digester Temperature

A flexible digester temperature enables holistic storage of surplus heat and minimization of heat deficits on water resource recovery facilities (WRRFs). Heatsaving potentials, performance as heat storage, and emissions of CO 2 are considered in four scenarios with increasing flexibility of digester temperature for a model WRRF with 500 000 PE (population equivalent). In comparison to a digester temperature at 37 °C all year, the scenario with seasonal variation of average digester temperatures between 32.5 and 43.6 °C has the greatest annual heatsaving potential and increase of stored heat. Further, the ranges of digester temperatures indicate a great performance as heat storage.

Variation of the digester temperature during the year enables the operation of digesters as seasonal heat storage contributing to a holistic heat management at water resource recovery facilities. Full‐ and lab‐scale process data were conducted to examine the effect of the digester temperature on process stability, sludge liquor quality and the dewaterability. Both full‐ and lab‐scale digesters show a stable anaerobic degradation process with a hydraulic retention time of more than 20 days and organic load rates up to 2.2 kg COD/(m3·d) at temperatures between 33 and 53 °C. The concentrations of soluble COD and ammonium‐nitrogen in the sludge liquor digested at 53 °C are 2.6‐ to 5.8‐ times and 1.3‐times higher, respectively, than in the sludge liquor digested at 37 °C. Dewatering tests show an enhancement of the dewaterability but a clear increase in the polymer demand at increased digester temperature.
