Recycling and reuse of resources from wastewater – new synthesis report and upcoming webinar
Published:
On 23rd October 2024, a new synthesis report was launched, shedding light on how Sweden can transition toward a more circular and sustainable management of wastewater resources. The report, titled Återvinning och återanvändning av resurser från avlopp (Recycling and reuse of resources from wastewater: the way forward for Sweden based on knowledge and practical experiences), is the result of a collaborative effort between several organizations led by IVL Swedish Environmental Research Institute and including Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI), RISE Research Institutes of Sweden, and Ecoloop, among others. The research detailed in the report was funded by the Environmental Research Grant of the Swedish EPA (Naturvårdsverket) and the Swedish Agency for Marine and Water Management. The synthesis report was developed over several years and aims to support Sweden’s transformation toward sustainable wastewater management, aligning with long-term environmental goals.
