Sewage sludge used to be put to primarily agricultural use as fertiliser. A change of legislation in 2017 impeded this. To still process sewage sludge in an ecologically compatible way, it is now incinerated in approved facilities instead. Moreover, sewage sludge can be dessicated and used as granules. We apply this method at some locations, using the surplus energy to save fossil fuels.

Why is sewage sludge attractive as fuel?

• active climate protection thanks to saving fossil fuels
• long-term contracts with local authorities, making the use easy to plan
• ensured accumulation of sewage sludge
• increase of throughput by decreasing power plant heating value
• optimisation of incineration residue
• sewage sludge is a supplier of natural phosphor which can be recovered

•
