Increased flexibility for biosolids disposal or reuse
Thermal hydrolysis is suitable for all biosolids disposal routes as it cuts costs by improving dewatering

Lowest carbon footprint
Better environment

|---|---|---|---|
| very high emissions of methane (a very potent greenhouse gas) |
1.8 million tonnes CO2 equivalent reduction
2.2 million tonnes CO2 equivalent reduction
714 000 European cars emit one million tonnes CO2 per year
Urban growth puts spatial pressure on utilities
Wastewater treatment plants are increasingly often surrounded by residential areas

Value of smaller digesters
Solid business case
THP minimises digester footprint in space-constrained wastewater treatment plants

Flexible and innovative utilization of Cambi THP
Four different configurations

Higher biogas production brings revenue or cuts cost
Solid business case

THP (between digesters)
Beijing Drainage Group: +43% with THP
Pay less for disposal
Solid business case
30-60% less biosolids to disposal
- Higher conversion of the organic matter into biogas
- Better dewatering
Beijing Higher quality sludge
Higher quality sludge can reduce cost per tonne, in some cases even turned into a product
