Накратко на български

Възстановяването на енергия, ресурси и продукти от отпадните води се изследва чрез анализ на технически и регулаторни пречки. Това помага за намаляване на парниковите газове и справяне с недостига на ресурси.

Sustainable Product, Energy and Resource Recovery from Wastewater

The European Union is a world leader in water research. It is the home to some of the largest water companies in the world as well as to a string of small to medium enterprises (SMEs) delivering diverse water technologies and engineering services. The EU supports integrated research projects that have successfully brought together scientists on particular aspects of the water cycle. It also supports training particularly at masters level through a diversity of water technology / management focused programmes. Considering the major investments made in the EU to improve the water infrastructure and the major financial interests existing with private and public entities, it is but logic that the EU harvests the scientific benefits as well as the commercial developments associated with it. Moreover, the EU could now become the ideal catalyst supporting the emerging paradigm shift from wastewater treatment to product, energy and resource recovery, driven by the ambition to boost economic growth in the water sector, as well as to reduce the (potential) impacts of increasing greenhouse gas emissions and resource scarcity. To enable this, there is also a clear need for young professionals having experience with 1. assessment of societal perception and (economical/social/environmental) sustainability of wastewater treatment and resource recovery systems; 2. identification of different types of (economical/technical/regulatory) bottlenecks in the implementation and exploitation of novel resource recovery technologies in Europe; 3. translation of research into policy through better understanding of the regulatory decision-making process and the ability to effectively communicate with policy-makers and other stakeholders; 4. business case development and establishment of industrial, urban, and mixed urban-industrial ecosystems. To match these needs, SuPER-W aimed to set up an international doctorate programme on product, energy and resource recovery from wastewater involving 5 top academic institutes in Europe, in alliance with industrial partners. This joint doctorate programme delivers a double or joint PhD degree from at least two of the involved academic institutions as well as a joint doctoral training certificate awarded by the entire consortium to all researchers successfully finalising the training programme and PhD research activities.

Цел на проекта

In many cases energy, water and resources contained in wastewater may have significant value if recovered. Therefore, the EU is currently confronted with a paradigm shift from wastewater treatment to resource recovery. To facilitate this shift, the SuPER-W European Joint Doctorate programme trains early-stage researchers (ESRs) in developing technologies for water, energy, nutrient and metal reuse, and bioproduction from (waste)water. The ESRs obtain knowledge and skills needed to turn environmental problems into economic opportunities. SuPER-W focuses not only on technology development through research, but the ESRs are also trained in translating research into policy, creative problem-solving, identification of bottlenecks for effective implementation of resource recovery technologies, development of business cases and urban/industrial ecosystems, and assessment of sustainability and the role of public perception and policy in innovation. Furthermore, they acquire a set of commercial, entrepreneurial and managerial skills that prepare them as future leaders. All ESRs are supervised by at least 2 promoters from 2 universities and co-supervised by a researcher from a non-academic partner organisation. Moreover, they conduct an internship in the non-academic sector in the first and last project year, contributing to more effective dissemination and exploitation of their research results. To organise the training, SuPER-W brings together leading researchers from 5 renowned universities and 12 associated non-academic partner organisations, including industrial partners involved in technology development, SMEs focused on consultancy/engineering, a service provider, a government agency, and professional network organisations. ESRs who successfully defend the PhD thesis and finish the doctoral training programme receive a double or joint PhD degree, jointly awarded by the universities of his/her promoters, as well as a joint doctoral training certificate of SuPER-W.
