Masterclass 3: Water-to-X: Problemstillinger i forbindelse med brug af forurenet vand til PtX og teknologiske muligheder for vandbehandling (in danish)

Moderator: DTI 

Show more

PtX kræver enorme mængder vand, af ultraren kvalitet, for at kunne realiseres. Af hensyn til drikkevandsforsyningen bør det overvejes, om der kan bruges forurenet vand, såsom spildevand, overfladevand eller drænvand fremfor grundvand. Men anvendelse af forurenet vand til produktion af ultrarent vand genererer en spildstrøm af koncentreret procesvand, som kræver en kompleks vandbehandling. I denne master class gennemgås de teknologiske og lovgivningsmæssige forhold, som er nødvendige at forholde sig til, for at realisere brugen af alternative vandkilder til PtX.

Program:

  • 12:00 Introduktion, Teknologisk Institut
  • 12:05 Lovgivning vedr. vand og PtX, Joánnes Gaard, Miljøministeriet
  • 12:25 Alternative vandkilder til PtX, Claus Nickelsen, NIRAS
  • 12:45 Pause               
  • 12:55 Udfordringer vedr. vand og PtX fra en forsynings perspektiv, Nikolaj Bang Thøgersen, Aalborg forsyning
  • 13:15 Gruppediskussion   
  • 13:25 Opsamling             
  • 13:30 Tak for nu

ABOUT THE EVENT

As we embark on the journey towards a sustainable future, the green transition stands as a pivotal moment in history. Yet, amidst the technological advancements driving this change, we must also acknowledge the critical roles played by nature and human interactions.

Join The Kitchen, in collaboration with CoRC, as we delve into the multifaceted dimensions of the green transition as a prelude to the upcoming Power-to-X symposium this May. Our curated panel discussion will transcend disciplinary boundaries, offering insights from diverse perspectives.

Explore the intricate relationship between technology, nature, and human behavior with representatives from three distinct viewpoints. Gain deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities inherent in large-scale green projects, such as the impact on local ecosystems and communities.

THE PANEL:

  • Heather Anne Swanson, Professor, Department of Anthropology 
  • Camilla Fløjgaard, Senior Researcher, Department of Ecoscience 
  • Lars Ditlev Mørck Ottosen, Head of Department of Biological and Chemical Engineering
