Green WWTP with ambitious goals
In Denmark, we see wastewater as a resource. Carbon, heat energy, sludge and treated wastewater must be optimally utilized and the nutrients in the wastewater must be reused.
Hillerød Utility started in 2013 on the establishment of WWTP HCR Syd - a green wastewater treatment plant (capacity 100,000 PE) with ambitious goals.
The plant was built on a number of principles:
-
Positive net energy
CO2 neutrality
Optimal use of resources
Symbiosis between private and public institutions
Integration of the facility into natural surroundings with public access
Environmental care is of high importance
The facility was commissioned in 2018.
