New publication "Climate-neutral wastewater treatment plants -..."

New digital tool "Climate balances for wastewater treatment plants with one click (KliK)"

- KliK is a digital tool that enables wastewater treatment plants to (roughly) estimate their greenhouse gas emissions (GHG emissions) in a simple way. This is intended to support them on their way to climate neutrality.
- Common operating data and wastewater parameters are used to balance the level of the relevant greenhouse gases N2O, CH4 and CO2 using current calculation approaches. Plant-specific boundary conditions are also taken into account.
- As a result, the GHG are balanced and selected GHG reduction measures are proposed, whose improvement of the overall GHG balance is estimated.
