Issues Addressed
Implementing SDG 6 will create large increase in energy consumption with the use of digitalization.
Features and Advantages
Increasing use of holistic digital control concepts – combining radar , real time models, triple amount of sensors and VSD.
Selecting the latest within components going digital – e.g. VSD’s which now also act as a sensor device.
Application (Where & How)
The World Wide first energy-neutral water catchment area – Marselisborg, Aarhus Water, Denmark
Fact box
Energy neutrality for the whole water cycle (water production & supply, wastewater pumping & treatment)?
Catchment area for 200,000 people. No wind, solar, heat pump or sludge burning energy is produced
Based on energy savings & household wastewater energy production (no external sludge, FOG or carbon added)
Comments on the Solution
This project has been regarded as an advanced case of sewage treatment by the International Energy Agency.
