Project: Controlling greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from municipal wastewatertreatment plants

2012-02-01 – 2013-07-31

Abstract

This research aims at controlling the processes involved in wastewater treatment to reduce emissions of CH4 and N20. The main objectives are:

- to quantify the emissions(at lab-scale and full-scale)

- to identify the underlying mechanisms of GHG formation

- to translate this knowledge into a mathematical model

- the development and testing of adequate control strategies
