“…Lack of studies that focus on interactions with local environment and stakeholders (integrated approach) [16,17,19] Linkages of sanitation with economic activity (market demand), social (stakeholders), and analysis from water-energy-nutrient nexus perspective (e.g., water consumption in the area).…”

“…Planning in the sanitation sector in developing countries should consider a multi-sectoral approach recognizing the interrelations between sanitation and other sectors such as water supply and solid waste management [174]. Van der Kooij et al [17] highlighted the importance of making connections between wastewater treatment systems, agri-food systems, and ecological aspects to find more suitable recovery options. In our study, the application of the framework allowed us to identify these interactions and contributed to a better knowledge on recovery options.…”

“…Some current barriers to implementation of resource recovery from wastewater are: How to combine resource recovery solutions to maximize plant productivity [7,12,13]; and a lack of decision-making tools and methodologies to identify the best solution for each context [14,15]. Most literature on resource recovery focuses on the discussion of recovery processes and technologies and not on the interactions with environment and stakeholders (researchers, policymakers, and end-users) [16,17]. Therefore, an integrated approach of potential resource recovery solutions on a real scale is necessary [16] (Table 1).…”

Currently, it is important to develop strategic frameworks to support the selection of sustainable resource recovery solutions. This study applies a new framework for planning, implementation, and assessment of resource recovery strategies for a full-scale wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in São Paulo megacity. The framework comprises several steps based on case study-specific data and information from current literature. Data were collected from various sources: a survey with a wastewater treatment utility, national and regional databases, and review of local regulations and international literature. Treatment configuration, wastewater and by-products composition, potential demand (for water, energy, and phosphorus), stakeholder identification, and local legislation were thoroughly discussed regarding decision-making on resource recovery. Scenario analysis was used to explore suitable nutrient and energy recovery measures based on indicators. Biogas recovery and sewage sludge composting showed more favorable conditions due to similar experiences in the area and robust legislation. The proposed framework is a simplified tool, and its application can support managers to get information on resource recovery and how to plan such initiatives in easier ways to facilitate wiser decision-making, and better operation and management. The results on framework use and refinement can guide potential applications in other contexts and stimulate public policy formulation and further research.

“…On the contrary, the amount of soluble Pb increases with the amount of SS, probably due to the presence of this metal in sewage sludge [26]. Concerning P, an element that is well-known to be abundant in SS [27], its concentration appears to decrease in FA with the increase of co-incinerated SS. On the contrary, in BA the leachable P shows an inverse behavior.…”

Stabilization of Municipal Solid Waste Fly Ash, Obtained by Co-Combustion with Sewage Sludge, Mixed with Bottom Ash Derived by the Same Plant

et al. 2020

This study presents an innovative stabilization method of fly ash derived from co-combustion of municipal solid waste and sewage sludge. Bottom ash, obtained from the same process, is used as a stabilizing agent. The stabilization method involved the use of two other components—flue gas desulfurization residues and coal fly ash. Leaching tests were performed on stabilized samples, aged in a laboratory at different times. The results reveal the reduction of the concentrations of heavy metals, particularly Zn and Pb about two orders of magnitude lower with respect to fly ash. The immobilization of heavy metals on the solid material mainly depends on three factors—the amount of used ash, the concentrations of Zn and Pb in as-received fly ash and the pH of the solution of the final materials. The inert powder, obtained after the stabilization, is a new eco-material, that is promising to be used as filler in new sustainable composite materials.

“…Meanwhile, returning organic wastes to agricultural land also reduces the amount of wastes to be disposed of [87]. Concerning the barriers of disposing the wastes from breeding and rural residents' living, Ma et al [88] suggested the establishment of a high-technology processing system, the household wastes sorting, and the operation of organic waste markets.…”
