Sustainable sewage sludge utilisation at the Homburg wastewater treatment plant
Scope
- Deliver a low-temperature belt dryer (ELODRY®) and carbonisation unit (PYREG®), including heat recovery and utilisation
- Coordination and construction planning
Technical Data
- ELODRY® low-temperature belt dryer with extremely low demand for thermal energy, including air treatment
- Tailor-made heat recovery and utilisation concept - Excess heat of the PYREG® process is used for ELODRY® drying process
- PYREG®-plant for the decentralised recycling of sewage sludge and production of a phosphorous-containing carbonisate, including air treatment
Special Features
- With the combination of a low-temperature belt dryer by ELIQUO STULZ GmbH and a carbonisation plant by PYREG GmbH, volumes of sewage sludge are reduced by around 90 % and, at the same time, the sewage sludge is converted fully into a high-quality fertiliser raw material with a high proportion of plant-available phosphorous. The combination is a complete phosphorous recovery solution for wastewater treatment plants.
