Cup in Bayreuth: New social building and energy center for sewage treatment!

A special kind of ceremony took place on November 14th in Bayreuth! The topping -out ceremony for a new social building and a modern energy center was celebrated on the site of the sewage treatment plant. Mayor Thomas Ebersberger and other important personalities such as Lothar Ziegler and Gisbert Röhle were on site to honor the progress of the impressive construction project. With an investment volume of over 37.5 million euros, the sewage treatment renovation will not only bring wastewater cleaning up to the latest state of the art, but will also make the energy supply climate -neutral.

The shell work that started at the end of February have now been completed and the expansion of the premises can begin. Offices, a laboratory as well as changing room and social rooms for the employees are being built in the new social building. Particularly noteworthy is the doubling of the changing and shower options, which is increased from 30 to 60 places in order to meet the new requirements. In order to correspond to the strict regulations for the separation of "black and white areas", two separate stairwells are also built.

technical innovations and new energy center

The energy center, which is located directly west of the social building, is equipped with the latest workshops. Three combined heat and power plants, excess sludge centrifuges and other technical facilities are housed here. On the first floor, electric workshops are created, while storage rooms and pumps are installed on the basement. In addition, two new low -pressure gas containers with a storage volume of 4,000 cubic meters are planned, which are intended to further increase the energy efficiency of the sewage treatment plant.

The comprehensive renovation of the sewage treatment plant has become urgently necessary because the existing technical facilities are outdated and prone to interference. The sewage treatment plant cleans the wastewater of around 100,000 people in the region and produces around 110,000 tons of sewage sludge annually. This project represents a significant step towards more environmentally friendly and efficient wastewater treatment.
