Im Rahmen eines USA-Praxissemesters der erstgenannten Autorin an der Tulane University in New Orleans wurden im Jahr 1995 in Zusammenarbeit mit Pipe Liners, Inc. Außendruckversuche an PE-HD-Linern durchgeführt. Bei diesen Versuchen sollte der maximale Beuldruck unter Variation von Randbedingungen des Liners im Altrohr (hier: Längsversatz und Ovalisierung) ermittelt werden. Außerdem war die Ermittlung des Zeitstandverhaltens der mit konstantem Außendruck beaufschlagten Versuchskörper ein wichtiges Versuchsziel. Die experimentellen Ergebnisse werden unter Verwendung der vom Zweitverfasser entwickelten nichtlinearen Theorie ausgewertet.
Wastewater generation model to predict impacts of urine separation on wastewater treatment plants
(2024)
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are under increasing pressure to enhance resource efficiency and reduce emissions into water bodies. The separation of urine within the catchment area may be an alternative to mitigate the need for costly expansions of central WWTPs. While previous investigations assumed a spatially uniform implementation of urine separation across the catchment area, the present study focuses on an adapted stochastic wastewater generation model, which allows the simulation of various wastewater streams (e.g., urine) on a household level. This enables the non-uniform separation of urine across a catchment area. The model is part of a holistic modelling framework to determine the influence of targeted urine separation in catchments on the operation and emissions of central WWTPs, which will be briefly introduced. The wastewater generation model is validated through an extensive sampling and measurement series.
Results based on observed and simulated wastewater quantity and quality for a catchment area of 366 residents for two dry weather days indicate the suitability of the model for wastewater generation and transport modelling. Based on this, four scenarios for urine separation were defined. The results indicate a potential influence of spatial distribution on the peaks of total nitrogen and total phosphorus.
