Abstract:
As the need for environmental protection and resource sustainability has increased in recent times, wastewater treatment has become increasingly important. In this paper, a group decision-making model for plans selection in wastewater treatment is proposed. In order to deal with uncertainties and multiple attributes in wastewater treatment, an intuitionistic fuzzy set is employed to evaluate wastewater treatment plans effectively. A distance measure is defined to obtain an objective weight measuring the expert’s judgment. More specifically, experts first use group decision-making on the variou

The District of Columbia's Wastewater Treatment Plant at Blue Plains is undergoing a $400 million expansion and upgrade from 13.5 m3/s to 16.2m3/s. A large portion of this expenditure is for a permanent sludge management system. Both present and future sludge management plans feature multiple sludge processing and disposal options. To improve existing sludge operations and provide accurate planning for future facilities, sludge production models were developed from historical plant operating data. The historical data were evaluated and a macro and micro model developed for the Blue Plains WWTP

Abstract:
New stricter nitrogen effluent standards and increasing influent loads require existing wastewater treatment plans (WWTPs) to extend or optimize. At WWTPs with limited aeration capacity, limited denitrification capacity or shortage of aerobic sludge age, implementation of SHARON to improve nitrogen effluent quality can be a solution. SHARON is a compact, sustainable and cost-effective biological process for treatment of nitrogen-rich rejection waters. At WWTP Rotterdam-Dokhaven and WWTP Utrecht a SHARON has been in operation for several years. For both WWTPs the effect of SHARON on the nitroge

Abstract:
Annoyance is a familiar reaction to odours arising from wastewater treatment sites, a reaction which can result in complaints and prosecutions. Odour management plans can be used to assess the extent of nuisance caused and prioritise mitigation measures. Often, these plans have been developed purely on the basis of technical assessments of emission and dispersion, with the general aim of limiting odour concentrations to a specific threshold at some distance from the works. They have often been prepared with inconsistent communication between the site staff and consultant during the development

Abstract:
The European Parliament’s climate and energy policy, which aims to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 considerably, imposes on Member States the duty to develop National Action Plans (NAPs), which determine the percentage of renewable energy sources (RES) in gross energy consumption. Poland assumed a percentage of renewable energy sources in gross energy consumption of 21–23% in the NREAP. In 2020, Poland’s utilisation of renewable energy sources was 16.2% (22nd among EU nations), which was lower than the European average.

Abstract:
The presence of excess water in centralized sewerage systems is known to have a multitude of unfavorable effects on the daily operation of the wastewater infrastructure. The additional volume of I/I-water decreases the hydraulic capacity of wastewater collection networks, reduces the efficiency of wastewater treatment processes, and increases the costs of transporting and treating the wastewater. Currently, most I/I studies in Latvia are conducted on the scale of the wastewater treatment plant service area and determine only the common performance indicators for a given year. However, data of

For the optimization of sewer networks and integration of water management in urban planning, estimations of wastewater discharges at a high spatial resolution are a key boundary condition. In many cases, these data are not available or, for reasons of data protection and company secrecy, the data are not accessible for research purposes. Therefore, procedures are needed to determine the volume of wastewater with high spatial resolution, based on freely accessible data.
