| Output characterisation | |
| OUTPUT SENTENCE | WWTP as energy and mineral recovery utility: production of hydrogen and oxygen with treated water. Oxygen for the biologic treatment and hydrogen for fuel and energy production. |
| OUTPUT TYPE | prototype |
| WATER TOPIC | Management process |
| MARKET NEED TAILORED | Energy saving / WWT Process improvement / Sludge Ultra Sound process disintegration/ reuse of heat/ co-generation |
| OUTPUT DESCRIPTION | Increase energy production, heat gain from wastewater, energy savings, phosphorus recovery |
| STATE OF DEVELOPMENT | Ready to use, the process have been validated in the wwtp of Amersfoort |
| INNOVATIVE ASPECTS AND ADVANTAGES | Phosphorus recovery, Ultra Sound sludge disintegration |
| TRANSFERABILITY |
Possible to transfer the output on other territories (Europeans countries) |
| POTENTIAL USERS/CLIENTS | WWTP designers and users |
| BUSINNESS CASE | No |
| Estimation of risks | |
| INNOVATIVE DISADVANTAGE | Complex process for sludge treatment |
| EVALUATION OF RISKS FOR OUTPUT USERS | Low risk |
| ECONOMICAL RISKS | Depends on the real price of energy (electricity, petrol , …) and on the outlet water parameters national regulation |
| TECHNICAL RISKS | No risk |
| MARKET RISKS | No risk, the global efficiency of the project depend on the nature of raw inlet water |
| SOCIAL RISKS | No risk |
| Steps ahead | |
| NEXT STEPS TO ACHIEVE THE STATUS 'READY TO USE' | Improve the experiment on a longer period |
| INVOLVEMENT OF THE OWNER FOR THE NEXT STEPS | Partners are following the project until 2016 |
| TYPE OF PARTNER FOR THE NEXT DEVELOPMENTS | WWTP designers and operators |
| TASKS TO BE PERFORMED | Period test between 2014 and 2015 |
