The use of Environmental Technology Verification System (ETV) by technology providers and buyers can improve energy efficiency in municipal wastewater treatment plants in Poland and Norway.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0
The framework of co-operation between the two countries will be developed under the project \"Facilitating the use of ETV to increase energy efficiency in water sector - ETV4Water\" implemented by the Environmental Technologies Verification Body - IETU (promoter), Gda\u0144sk Water Foundation and the Norwegian company Aquateam COWI AS. The project is financed under the Fund for Bilateral Relations - PL04. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

It is estimated that the electricity consumption accounts for 25-30% of the operating costs of urban wastewater treatment plants. Innovative wastewater treatment technologies can play an important role in improving energy efficiency of the water and wastewater sector. However, their implementation is hampered by the lack of references from previous applications. Providers of such technologies have problems with competing in the market. The Environmental Technology Verification allows us to confirm the effects and benefits of using innovative technologies declared by their providers in an impartial manner, based on solid scientific framework and maintaining the highest quality standards. Through trainings we want to make it easier for providers and buyers of technologies from Poland and Norway to use the ETV system\u201d, says Izabela Ratman-K\u0142osi\u0144ska, Coordinator of the ETV4Water project.<\/em><\/p>\n

We invite technology providers, representatives of wastewater treatment plants, R&D units and laboratories for trainings and workshops which will be organised in September and October this year.
<\/strong>
At the end of September, consultative workshops will be held for wastewater treatment plant operators, consultants, designers, technology providers, local authorities, and investors aimed at demonstrating the possibilities of implementing the advancements to improve the energy efficiency of the processes used in urban wastewater treatment plants.<\/p>\n

During the trainings which will take place in October at POL-ECO-SYSTEM 2017 in Pozna\u0144:<\/p>\n
