The aerobic granular sludge (AGS) biotechnology has gained increasing interest during the past two decades as a potential replacement of conventional activated (CAS) process, due to its ability improve overall wastewater treatment efficiency and strong attain sustainable development with this biotechnology. This paper provides an overview AGS biotechnology, focusing on global application, digestion, resource recovery from waste AGS. main value-added products obtainable include phosphorus, alginate-like exopolymers (ALE), biodegradable plastics, biogas. is becoming increasingly common worldwide, where number full-scale installations doubled years reach 88 by mid-2021. Yet, application mainly in Europe, specifically Netherlands, which home first plants Nereda®. In Americas, limited United States Brazil. not been utilized Canada despite numerous benefits. feasibility requires better understanding cultivation compact stable granules essential efficient plant (WWTP) operation. Research should focus finding innovative reactor configurations promote fast granulation continuous flow regime scaling-up technologies resources surplus order realize mainstream WWTPs.

Abstract The circular economy has attracted considerable attention also in relation to water, an indispensable element the sustainment of life and a critical input resource for world economy. Despite growing body research on water (CEW), consistent terminology clear conceptualisation CEW strategies are lacking. Without such aspects, decision-makers, scientists professionals may be hindered developing shared understanding problems solutions exploiting new opportunities domain CEW. Furthermore, we argue that is unique because it resource, product service with no equivalent economic system should considered valued as Accordingly, provide definition framework reducing, preserving optimising use through waste avoidance, efficient utilisation quality retention while ensuring environmental protection conservation. Building analysis academic literature cases studies, outline illustrate set nine strategies, including Rethink, Avoid, Reduce, Replace, Reuse, Recycle, Cascade, Store Recover. Finally, identify normative (legislation), governance (roles responsibilities) implementation (barriers application) challenges need addressed facilitate transition comprehensive

Due to increased food production, the demand for nitrogen and phosphorus as fertilizers grows. Nitrogen-based are produced with Haber–Bosch process through industrial fixation of N2 into ammonia. Through wastewater treatment, is finally released back atmosphere gas. This cycle characterized by drawbacks. The energy requirement high, in mainly converted gas lost atmosphere. In this study, technologies recovery from were selected based on four criteria: sustainability (energy use N2O emissions), potential recover an applicable form, maturity technology, concentration that can be handled technology. As focus also other resources; interactions biogas recovery, cellulose examined. mutual interference several was studied using adaptive policy making. most promising mature incorporated existing treatment plants include struvite precipitation, digester reject water air stripping, vacuum membrane filtration, hydrophobic thermal sludge drying, resulting respectively 1.1%, 24%, 75%, 2.1% specific case plant Amsterdam-West. effects limited. Higher (60%) could realized separate urine collection, but requires a completely new infrastructure collection treatment. It concluded different parallel required reach sustainable solutions. Nitrogen does not interfere resources. An adaptation pathways map good tool take account developments, uncertainties, ambitions when choosing recovery.
