摘要: Conventional waste management practices focusing principally on collection, treatment and disposal or even minimisation often prove insufficient to address resource challenges in a sustainable manner. Taking into account the relationship between water provision, energy security efficiency, systems approach that delivers strong information basis provides opportunities for use optimisation at various levels of application synergies could deliver real benefits when cross-sectoral solutions are applied. By-products from sewage combination with organic solid such as food can provide valuable source if managed properly utilised effectively. This way, be seen raw material than turned rather simply discarded. As such, AD (anaerobic digestion), co-digestion sludge, become strategic solution, carefully applied, potential convey beneficial industries. However, barriers development diverse interlinked. Institutional frameworks, decision making constraints, regulatory boundaries might still appear require an answer three different problems, but this overcome presented just parts same answer. Such economic additional renewable generated its associated incentives, savings costs infrastructure required exclusive digestion waste.
