Abstract

Sewage treatment facilities can purify sewage enough to be send to river or sea water, that discharged from human life and industrial activities. In the sewage treatment process, we can get large amount of by-product energy resources and materials such as heat of sewage, digester gas and purified water etc., it can be utilized by applying various technologies thereby we can reduce energy consumption in the process. In this paper, it was analyzed using the data collected from the operational case study for the energy savings effect that can be obtained when using the digester gas, one of the by-product materials of sewage treatment process, for electric power generation. Cost of 623million won is an annual reduction of 4,032MWh corresponding 9% of the annual electricity consumption of the sewage treatment plant, such an alternative power generation using digester gas was proposed in this paper has been verified the feasibility of the proposed reduction of energy.
