Economic and environmental feasibility assessment of two different AnMBR-based treatment schemes treating sulfate-rich urban wastewater

[EN] Two different facilities with AnMBR technology for sulfate-rich wastewater are analyzed. Scenario 1 consists of an AnMBR fed with raw wastewater. Scenario 2 couples AnMBR, primary settling and anaerobic digestion. Scenarios 1 and 2 were simulated with DESASS 7.1 software considering experimenta...

Scenario 1 consists of an AnMBR fed with raw wastewater. Scenario 2 couples AnMBR, primary settling and anaerobic digestion. Scenarios 1 and 2 were simulated with DESASS 7.1 software considering experimental data obtained from an AnMBR demonstration plant located in Carraixet facility (Valencia, Spain). Comparison between both scenarios is made based on their energy balances and applying the life cycle costing and life cycle assessment methodologies. Energy results showed net energy consumption of 0.148 kWh center dot m-3 in scenario 1 and a net energy savings of 0.057 kWh center dot m-3 in scenario 2 due to reduced mixing requirement and improved energy recovery. Energy savings also allows reducing operating expenditure in scenario 2 (0.022 m-3) compared to scenario 1 (0.066 m-3). Degassing membranes in scenario 1 (0.020 m-3) also contribute to increase its capital expenditure (0.083 m-3) over scenario 2 (0.055 m-3). Scenario 2 shows a better environmental performance in all the categories evaluated. The absence of dissolved methane in the effluent and the improved energy recovery allowed scenario 2 to act as carbon sink (-0.033 kgCO2eq center dot m-3). Therefore, coupling AnMBR, primary settling and anaerobic digestion improves the feasibility of sulfate-rich wastewater treatments compared to AnMBR alone.The authors would like to acknowledge the Ministry of Science and Innovation for supporting the project "RECREATE" (PID2020-114315RB-C22) and "BIONUTEN" (CTM2014-54980-C2-R) where this research is framed and the Ministry of Universities for the financial research fellowship of the first author (BES-2015-073403) .ElsevierDepartamento de Ingeniería Hidráulica y Medio AmbienteInstituto Universitario de Ingeniería del Agua y del Medio AmbienteEscuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería de Caminos, Canales y PuertosAgencia Estatal de InvestigaciónMinisterio de Economía y CompetitividadRepositorio Institucional de la Universitat Politècnica de València Riunet20252025-04-0120252025-04-0820272027-02-28journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://riunet.upv.es/handle/10251/220370reponame:RiuNet.
