Biomethane or hydrogen, a “green” energy source obtained from renewable resources such as wastewater and sewage sludge, can become an important cornerstone of the energy transition. This can be achieved by coupling wastewater and waste management with the transport, building/heating or industrial sectors. At Berlin’s sewage treatment plants, biogas is produced from sewage sludge which

The new action plan of the European Commission – the Green Deal – aims to increase the sustainability of the European economy. One pillar of the green Deal is the consequent promotion of circular economy related processes. In this context, ULTIMATE (indUstry water-utiLiTy symbIosis for a sMarter wATEr society) will foster the synergetic cooperation between
