IVL Swedish Environmental Research Institute is an independent, non-profit research institute, owned by a foundation jointly established by the Swedish Government and Swedish industry.

IVL Swedish Environmental Research Institute was established in 1966 and has since then been involved in the development of solutions to environmental problems, at national and international level.

We work with applied research and contract assignments for an ecologically, economically, and socially sustainable growth within business and society at large. The institute employs around 200 experts, which makes IVL a leading institute for applied environmental research and consultancy services.

Collaborations

We are members of a number of national and international networks.

We also have close collaboration with universities. Through these connections, we have access to unique knowledge and highly qualified partners.

Eutrophication has many effects

algae blooming

phosphorous-depending cyanobacteria

dead bottoms and hydrogen sulphide

(1) Nitrogen is emitted to waters

(2) Spring blooming of plankton

(3) Algae die

(4) Algae are de-composed which consumes oxygen

(5) Bottoms get anoxic

(6) Phosphorous is released

(7) Summer blooming of cyanobacteria

Extent of oxygen-depleted bottom water

In the Baltic Sea Worldwide

Need for action?

Doesn’t the Baltic take care of itself?

How affects and is the Baltic affected by climate change?

Can technical solutions help in a long term?

Why do we think we need actions also in the Baltic and not only at sources?

There sure is a good monitoring of sources and these sources can be abated?

The Baltic in imbalance? Weakening of natural processes? Restore the Baltic Sea self-cleaning biogeochemical processes?

WEBAP: Aim

Improved oxygen situation in deep water layers

Species that are dependent on conditions in deep water, would get a better environment and opportunities for reproduction.

Solved inorganic phosphorus released due to the reducing conditions in the bottom sediments will be bound in complexes and thus reduce the inorganic nutrient concentrations in the water.

Yet:

2-6 million tons of oxygen needed each year!

Enormous amounts of energy to pump oxygen down to 80-120m depth!

WEBAP: How?

The use of natural resources:

Source of energy: waves

Source of oxygen: oxygen-rich surface water

Advantages:

Oxygenation & mixing

Simple and robust design with no moving parts

No need for electricity

WEBAP: Planning and design

18 tests with different wave conditions mooring forces Pump capacity for each wave spectra Stability Optimal ramp (30˚isoptimal) other details

WEBAP: Pilot I

Facts

14 m with, variable ramp

faces waves at all conditions

outlet at 75m depth

Measurements

Pump-capacity, wave parameter, currents, CTD-profiles, sediment, forces, stability, behaviour, etc.

Operation period

November 2010 to April 2013 (with interrupted operation between December 2010 to July 2011)

WEBAP: Pilot II

Facts

2,5 m in diameter, variable pump-capacity between 1-4m3/s

maximal effect use 5 kW

outlet at 100m depth

Measurements

Pump capacity, CTD-profiles, sediments, metals, nutrients, currents etc.

Operation period

Results (so far)?

Measurements and mapping of the lack of oxygen in the area indicate that the lack of oxygen in the pilot areas is more widely spread than previously estimated

Measurements confirm the estimated pumping capacity at different wave heights

Large scale implementation modeling establishing that the technique does not affect the salinity stratification

Modeling for the Gotland Deep based on field data show oxygenation of the whole area down to the seafloor after only five years

Results (so far)?

Tests with sediment and organisms from the pilot sites show no adverse effects of oxygenation

Potential to bind up to 100 000 tones of phosphorus, which can be compared with the annual land supply of around 30 000 tones /yr and the environmental objective to reduce this load by 15 000 tones /yr

Several setups for different conditions (waves, etc.)

Modeling of pumping in Kanholmsfjärden based on field data shows effect of oxygenation not only in Kanholmsfjärden but also in adjacent bays due to the high water exchange

Results (so far)?

Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) and Lifecycle Cost (LCC) analyses indicates that the WEBAP is the most sustainable and cost-efficient alternative

Dissemination an awareness increase

Newspaper, conferences, TV, notice boards, homepage, Facebook, reports, exhibition, flyer, seminars, radio, etc.

Wastewater treatment intelligence

The need for R&D facilities

to master the future

Background

> 2 billion people have water shortage

Diseases due to bad water quality

Millions lack proper waste-water treatment

Deterioration of quantity and quality of natural water systems

Agriculture uses 2/3 of the water that is consumed

Increasing water demand for industrial growth

New regulations (e.g. EU)

Use of chemicals in water treatment <1% recycling

Request of use of renewable energy sources

Sustainable growth and development

Clear link to wastewater treatment

What we have: A treatment facility

Problems/Challenges

The water sector is a major energy user

GHG emissions

Treated water is not used

Outflows may contain pollutants, viruses, pathogens etc.

Sludge seen as a problem

Wastewater in

Energy in Sludge out

What other ingredients are needed?

Stakeholder involvement (companies, authorities, research organisations, associations, sewage plants, etc.)

Basic and applied R&D partners

Innovation Platform

Demonstrators

Approach and Knowledge Transfer Networks

Improving skills base/Education

Public dialogue/involvement

International co-operation and collaboration

Optimal if you could find all these at the same location!

Where can this be achieved?
