Abstract

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are one of the important sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission. There is a need for systematical tool that can be used to analyze GHG emission from WWTPs, and to evaluate the associated reduction strategies. In this paper, a systematic analysis methodology, called the greenhouse emission pinch analysis (GEPA), is developed for this purpose. GEPA is graphical in nature, and can be used to analyze the on-site and off-site GHG emissions of the WWTP. Furthermore, three GHG reduction strategies, i.e., increased aeration capacity, external carbon source controller, and reuse of biogas, are evaluated for their environmental load and operational cost reduction using the GEPA. A case study is used to elucidate the proposed method. In this study, the third strategy which reuses biogas from anaerobic digestion shows the largest reduction of GHG emissions.
