INTERWASTE ProjectINTERWASTE is co-funded by EU LIFE+ ENVIRONMENTINTERWASTE Partners
National Technical University of Athens (Greece)Cyprus University of TechnologyUniversity of Nicosia (Cyprus) Proplan Ltd (Cyprus) Department of Environment Ministry of Agriculture, natural
Recourses and Environment .
Aim of present workDevelopment of an integrated system for sustainable
treatment of Biodegradable Organic Waste and Municipal Wastewater with zero discharge
Production of high quality, added value productsElectricity and heat from renewable sources (organic
waste)High quality effluent that can be reused (i.e. irrigation)High quality soil conditioner-compost
This can be achieved through the integration of aerobic and anaerobic processes by employing:
Membrane BioReactor-Anaerobic Digester
MBR - AD
Potential users of the integrated MBR-AD system
Generally places where production of waste and demand of the obtained products from waste treatment co-exist:
Remote de-centralized regions
Small communities
Residential areas (i.e. blocks of flats)
Hotels

The integrated system The MBR – AD Unit
Operating parametersMBR
1,5 m3/d municipal wastewatersludge outlet– 100 l/d => to AD
ADDaily preparation of substrate. Formation of a
mixture of 150L with 10% TS consisting of food waste and sludge from the MBR
150 L of digestate are separated into liquid and solid phase Solid phase => solar drier Liquid phase => recirculated to the MBR

MBR-AD potential applicationsTreating Biowaste & Municipal wastewater of a
community with population of 1,000 persons in Cypruscovers the electricity needs of around 55 inhabitants or 19
households Produces 150 m3/d of water that can be used for irrigation
Treating Biowaste & Municipal wastewater of a 5 star Hotel in Cypruscovers 3.4% of the needs for electricity and covers 3.6% of the heating needs Produces 250 m3/d water that can be used for irrigation
