10 Sustainability and Mitigation of Global Warming Objectives HAMBURG WASSER is energy-self-sufficient by 2018 HAMBURG WASSER works on Zero-CO 2 -Concepts HAMBURG WASSER works on new concepts to reduce water consumption HAMBURG WASSER promotes decentralized stormwater management Project Examples Concept for Energy-self-sufficient water and wastewater treatment Energy from Waste Water New Concepts for Urban Living: Zero-CO 2 -Concept Hamburg Water Cycle Stormwater Management Slide 10

11 HAMBURG WASSER is energy-self-sufficient by 2018 Since 2011 HAMBURG WASSER s carbon-neutral production of electricity and heat on its own grounds levels the consumption of the WWTP. In 2018 HAMBURG WASSER s carbon-neutral production of electricity and heat on its own grounds will level the consumption of the whole company. CO 2 -emissions by 2018: < 1000 t/a vs t/a in 1990 ( t/a in 2009) Slide 11

12 Way to an Energy-self-sufficient HAMBURG WATER Energy balance WWTP and Water Works Slide 12

13 Way to an Energy-self-sufficient HAMBURG WATER CO 2 -Emissions (electricity, heat, automotive) Slide 13

14 Measures at HAMBURG WASSER Using the energy gleaned from waste water Savings per year: CO tons Energy generated by the heating system per year: 2 million kwh Slide 14

15 Measures at HAMBURG WASSER Communal heating supplied by excess heat generated through clarification processes Three external buildings in the vicinity are heated by excess heat from the clarification plan 100% energy from excess heat generated by the clarification process Replacement for expensive burning fuel Savings per year: CO tons Energy generated per year: 2 million kwh Slide 15

16 Measures at HAMBURG WASSER Biogas refined into bio-methane Biogas from the clarification plant at Köhlbrandhöft is refined to produce biomethane Bio-methane is fed into the public gas network Bio-methane is used to power the HAMBURG WASSER fleet of natural-gas vehicles Savings per year: CO 2 3,200 tons Energy generated per year: 16 million kwh Slide 16

17 Energy service cooling (and process water) Low temperature from raw water used for cooling process Delivery of process water Slide 17

20 HAMBURG WATER Cycle in Jenfeld The designated territory in Jenfeld Slide 20

21 HAMBURG WATER Cycle in Jenfeld HAMBURG WATER Cycle Characteristics water concept Separation of waste water streams and separate treatment on site: storm water grey water black water Storm water management and rainwater harvesting as an urbanistic element Slide 21

22 HAMBURG WATER Cycle in Jenfeld Vacuum toilet and vacuum sewage system less flushing water less odors flexible piping network unknown sound higher investment costs Slide 22

23 HAMBURG WATER Cycle in Jenfeld HAMBURG WATER Cycle Characteristics water concept Grey water collection and treatment (trickle filter/ membrane technology) Transport of black water by use of vacuum technology Black water with toxics and resources remains concentrated. Black water recycling enables digestion of other biomass and therefore production of energy on the spot (zero CO2). Slide 23
