This chapter discusses Water supply Waste water treatment Solid wastes Recreational facilities

Energy used to supply water to southern California Pumping of groundwater, MJ/m 3, or Diversion, 9 MJ/m 3, or Desalination of seawater, MJ/m 3, or Treatment MJ/m 3 Local distribution MJ/m 3 Provision of bottled water ,200 MJ/m 3

Measures to reduce energy use in supplying water Reduce leakage (30-50% of the water that enters the supply system in developing country cities is typically lost) Improve pumping system (can reduce electricity use by 20-40%) Reduce waste by end users Improve desalination (where applicable) Discourage use of bottled water

Wastewater treatment The biggest energy savings is through recovery and use of all of the biogas that is produced from the anaerobic digestion of sewage sludge The pending shortage of P will require eventual recovery of P from sewage for use as a fertilizer. Normal procedures are energy-intensive (150 MJ/kgN); extraction from minimally diluted urine would require much less energy (65 MJ/kgN)

Solid wastes Landfilling Incineration (or pyrolysis or gasification) Anaerobic digestion Composting Mechanical biological treatment (MBT) - separate recyclable materials (metals, glass, plastic) - digest or compost organic materials

Items to consider in assessing the lifecycle energy balance of different waste management options Energy required to collect, clean and sort materials that are used by secondary production facilities Energy used for primary and secondary production facilities Energy value of co-products produced at primary or secondary production facilities Energy costs of disposal of wastes associated with primary and secondary production Electrical or useful thermal energy produced through incineration

Items (continued) Efficiency of methods that would produce the heat and electricity that are otherwise produced through incineration The efficiency with which wood that is saved through the recycling of paper could be used to generate heat or electricity The ratio with which recycled fibres can substitute for virgin fibres in the production of paper Capture and emission of methane from landfills

General results Recycling of paper and cardboard is clearly and consistently superior to any alternative option from an energy point of view Recycling of steel and aluminium is strongly superior to any alternative Recycling of glass is preferable to incineration or landfilling Recycling of plastics is preferable to incineration when cleaning is not necessary, but incineration with electricity generation can otherwise be better from an energy point of view

Incineration tends to provide very little energy because Some materials yield little or no energy Water that is vaporized subtracts from the net energy supplied The efficiency of generating electricity is low (20- 30%) because of the need to limit the temperature and pressure of combustion due to impurities and irregularities in the waste stream

Recreational Facilities Indoor skating rinks Indoor swimming pools, gymnasia and recreation complexes

Figure 8.7 Breakdown of energy use in a typical Canadian indoor skating arena

Energy saving opportunities for indoor skating rinks Supply required heat from the condenser of the chiller Increase (for new rinks) the thickness of insulation beneath the concrete floor slab Increase insulation of the building and install enthalpy exchangers Install low-emissivity ceiling (to reduce infrared heat flow to the ice surface) Place variable speed drives on brine pumps in the refrigeration system

Net result Easily a 50% reduction in energy use compared to conventional designs in Canada Energy load reduced to the point where a significant fraction of the remaining load could be met with rooftop PV

Indoor swimming pools Higher relative humidity (RH) will reduce evaporation from (and evaporative cooling of) the pool However, without high-performance glazing, condensation problems will occur Normally, high rates of air exchange are created so as to maintain the RH low enough to avoid condensation problems, which further increases the energy requirements

A high-performance envelope Directly reduces heat loss through the envelope Permits maintenance of a higher indoor RH because inner surface temperatures will be warmer, thereby reducing evaporative cooling of the pool Permits lower rates of air exchange with the outside, because RH does not need to be kept as low A pool in Germany built to the Passive House standard is expected to achieve a savings of 60-70% in total energy use compared to pools meeting the current German building code

Gymnasia: Construction to the Passive House standard results in ventilation airflow alone providing enough heat to the gym, and allows a single ventilation system with air flowing from the gym to the changing rooms (with additional heating due to the different thermal requirements of the gym and changing rooms) and then to the outside

Recreation complexes: Lend themselves to the use of heat exchangers and heat pumps to match heat sources and heat requirements Use of just 4 heat exchangers in a complex in Mexico (involving a hospital, laundry centre, sports centre with a swimming pool and a family health centre) would save almost 40% of total heating requirements
