High growth rates and higher biogas yields (compared to conventional sewage sludge) of algal biomass can significantly improve WWTP energy balances.This study focuses on temperate climate zones with changing seasons and discusses energy potential of microalgae-enhanced wastewater treatment for an existing WWTP (32,000 PE) in Central Germany. For WWTP-dimensioning and determination of energy-rich biomasses for anaerobic digestion and CHP, actual influent load data was used and calculation was carried out according to valid regulations. Algae growth figures are based on pilot-scale test series from Germany and correspond to the relevant climatic and local process conditions. Computed results show a shift in the energy balance from a current energy demand of 662,173 kWh a-1 to an energy production of approx. 1,9 MWhel. a-1 and 1 MWhth. a-1.}, cin = {IBG-2}, ddc = {570}, cid = {I:(DE-Juel1)IBG-2-20101118}, pnm = {2172 - Utilization of renewable carbon and energy sources and engineering of ecosystem functions (POF4-217)}, pid = {G:(DE-HGF)POF4-2172}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, UT = {WOS:000782113500001}, doi = {10.1016/j.biortech.2022.126695}, url = {https://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/905209}, }
