Abstract

A multistep methodology for the evaluation of the energetic behaviour of a wastewater treatment plant has been carried out, in according to Horizon2020 Enerwater methodology. The study took into account each phase of the process scheme, in order to obtain specific electricity consumption values for all the electro-mechanic devices. Data from both tele-control system and direct measurements in field have been acquired in order to perform a critical analysis for improving energy efficiency.
