Johannesburg Water Northern Wastewater Treatment Works-Biogas to Electrical Energy

摘要

Johannesburg Water, leading water and sanitation utility, has over the last few years embarked on a multibillion-rand capital investment programme to upgrade, expand and modernise each of its six wastewater treatment facilities. The first WWTW to undergo the expansion and upgrade was the Northern WWTW, which is the largest works with a capacity of 450 Me/day, and is located outside of the northern suburbs of Johannesburg. The professional team utilised the opportunity to introduce renewable energy principles into the upgrades, which were fully embraced by Johannesburg Water's management.
