More information

Wastewater contains organic matter that conventional wastewater treatment destroys in an expensive way, producing "sludge" that is basically valorized (agricultural spreading, incineration).

Studies and research are increasingly focusing on the recovery of these organic compounds (cellulose, polymers, etc.) prior to destruction, with a view to "noble" recovery. The project involves a technical and economic study of the components to be recovered and the technologies adapted to the Walloon context: existing municipal wastewater treatment systems, types of Walloon fabric industry, opportunities for relocating industrial activities or new recovery systems (bioplastics, cellulose, etc.).
