Humification of sewage sludge in El-Minia and Nawaq, Egypt (draft) Case study of sustainable sanitation projects IPP Consult, GTZ (2008)

The project „Sewage Sludge Conversion in Egypt“ was initiated and financed by GTZ (German Society for Technical Cooperation) and the private company ipp Consult from Germany as PPP project. For technical, scientific and management support ipp Consult established a Cooperation with the Egyptian Consulting Enterprise USDC (Urban Study and Design Centre) in close relation with the National Academy for Scientific Research and Technology. The main goals of the project were: - Evaluation of methods to convert sewage sludge from waste water treatment plants in different climatic regions in Egypt to a product of high quality, which can be applied in a safe and effective way in agriculture, public gardening and landscaping as well as for wood production. - Dissemination of the useful results and information about sludge conversion in the framework of a closed loop system to treatment plant operators, authorities, farmers etc. The project was divided in 4 phases: - I (3,5 months): organisational tasks and first large scale experiments - II (3,5 months): After first dissatisfying results the experiments were continued in a bigger small scale programme in Nawaq to determine the adequate plant species and operation methods. - III (6 months): large scale experiments in Nawaq and El Minia - IV (4 months): agricultural experiments, socioeconomic field study, presentations, information campaign.
