The inventory is mainly based on industry data and is completed, where necessary, by secondary data.0The data set represents the country / region specific situation in Germany (Baden Württemberg), focusing on the main technologies, the region specific characteristics and / or import statistics.This data set covers all relevant inputs and outputs from the treatment of incoming waste water from domestic/municipal sewage. It can also be used for low contaminated waste water from industrial processes. Highly contaminated industrial waste water requires special treatment which is not accounted in this dataset. This dataset contains mechanical, biological and chemical treatment steps for the waste water (including precipitation and neutralization), and treatment steps for the sludge (thickening, dewatering, drying, conditioning). The outflow goes directly to the receiving water (natural surface water). The waste water composition to the plant represents an average outflow of a municipality to the treatment plant with organic and inorganic substances or derivates from this average composition. The process steps are taking average elimination and transfer coefficients into account. The sewage passes through the bar screens for rag removal. In this section, automatic bar screen cleaners remove large solids (rags, plastics, etc.) from the raw sewage. Next, the sewage is transported to the grit tanks. These tanks reduce the velocity of the sewage so that heavy particles can settle to the bottom. In the separator suspended particles such as oils, fats are removed. The settlement tank can remove the larger suspended solids. FeSO4, and Ca(OH)2 are used as precipitant agents in the mixing tank to remove metals. Ca(OH)2 and H2SO4 to regulate the pH value. The primary clarifiers remove the suspended solids from the mixing tank prior to discharge to the aeration tanks. The aeration tanks provide a location where biological treatment of the sewage takes place. The activated sludge converts organic substances into oxidised products, which are settled out in the secondary clarifiers. Phosphoric acid is used as nutrient for micro-organisms. The cleared overflow in the secondary clarifiers goes to a natural surface water body (stream, river or bay). The settled solids, from the settlement tank, the primary clarifiers and secondary clarifiers, are pumped to the primary thickener where the solids are thickened (water content thickened sludge 96 %). The sludge is pumped to filter presses for dewatering, which use chemical flocculants to separate the water from the solids (water content dewatered sludge 65 %). Next, the sludge is getting dried with thermal energy (water content of dried sludge 25 %). The content from the screen and grit chamber can be mixed with the dried sludge and fed into an incinerator. The energy (electricity and thermal energy) produced in the incinerator is not counted as credit in this cut-off data set.
The composition of the sludge refers to the output of the municipal sewage plant modeled as described above.
The background system is addressed to average country specific conditions as follows:
As auxiliaries are used: precipitation agents, nutrients, neutralisation chemicals and conditioning agents. For these processes, cradle to gate data sets have been chosen for the following chemicals: Iron (II) sulphate, calcium hydroxide, sulphuric acid and phosphoric acid. When connecting the municipal sewage plant with waste incinerator the power and thermal energy resulting from the incineration process may either be looped back, neglected (worst case), credited completely (best case). In this data set the power and thermal energy resulting from the incineration process is connected to sinks due to the cut-off approach.
For the way of handling of these flows a standard procedure cannot be recommended. It must be decided dependent on the overall situation and the system considered.
Electricity, thermal energy: The electricity (and thermal energy as by-product) used is modelled according to the individual country-specific situation. The country-specific modelling is achieved on multiple levels. Firstly the individual power plants in service are modelled according to the current national grid. This includes net losses and imported electricity. Second, the national emission and efficiency standards of the power plants are modelled. Third, the country-specific fuel supply (share of resources used, by import and / or domestic supply) including the country-specific properties (e.g. element and energy contents) are accounted for. Fourth, the import, transport, mining and exploration processes for the energy carrier supply chain are modelled according to the specific situation of each power-producing country. The different mining and exploration techniques (emissions and efficiencies) in the different exploration countries are accounted for according to current engineering knowledge and information.
Steam: The steam supply is modelled according to the individual country-specific situation with regard to the technology efficiencies and energy carriers used. Efficiencies range from 84% to 94% in relation to the representative energy carrier (gas, oil, coal). Coal, crude oil and natural gas used for the generation of steam are modelled according to the specific import situation (see electricity).
Transports: All relevant and known transport processes used are included. Overseas transport including rail and truck transport to and from major ports for imported bulk resources are included. Furthermore all relevant and known pipeline and / or tanker transport of gases and oil imports are included.
Energy carriers: Coal, crude oil, natural gas and uranium are modelled according to the specific import situation (see electricity).
Refinery products: Diesel, gasoline, technical gases, fuel oils, basic oils and residues such as bitumen are modelled via a country-specific, refinery parameterized model. The refinery model represents the current national standard in refinery techniques (e.g. emission level, internal energy consumption,...) as well as the individual country-specific product output spectrum, which can be quite different from country to country. Hence the refinery products used show the individual country-specific use of resources. The supply of crude oil is modelled, again, according to the country-specific crude oil situation with the respective properties of the resources.Calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2; dry; slaked lime) (EN15804 A1-A3)Ferric chloride (approximation)Sodium hydroxide (from chlorine-alkali electrolysis, diaphragm)Sulphuric acid (96%)Aluminium chloride hexahydrateIron (II) sulphatePhosphoric acid (75%)Sewage sludge waste incineration plant dry processThermal energy from light fuel oil (LFO)Thermal energy from natural gasCoke mixNitrogen (liquid)Ammonia (NH3) without CO2 recovery (carbon dioxide emissions to air)Sodium bicarbonateLime (CaO; finelime) (EN15804 A1-A3)Municipal waste water treatment (mix)Activated carbonProcess steam from light fuel oil (LFO) 95%Process steam from natural gas 95%Treatment of waste water and usage of sludge.eol_municipal waste water treatment (sludge incineration, cut-off).jpgeol_municipal waste water treatment with biotic co2-emission_output dried sludge.jpgeol_cewep waste incineration plant dry process (basic plan) kka.jpgLCI resultAttributionalNoneAllocation - market valueAllocation - net calorific valueAllocation - exergetic contentAllocation - massForeground system: None.
Background system: For the combined heat and power production, allocation by exergetic content is applied. For the electricity generation and by-products, e.g. gypsum, allocation by market value is applied due to no common physical properties. Within the refinery allocation by net calorific value and mass is used. For the combined crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids production allocation by net calorific value is applied.

Carbon storage and delayed emissions: credits associated with temporary (carbon) storage or delayed emissions are not considered in the calculation of the Global Warming Potential impacts for the default impact categories.
Emissions off-setting: not included
Fossil and biogenic carbon emissions and removals: removals and emissions are modelled as follows: All GHG emissions from fossil fuels (including peat and limestone) are modelled consistently with the ILCD list of elementary flows. In the case that the emissions refer to the molecules CO2 and CH4, they are modelled as ‘carbon dioxide (fossil)’ and ‘methane (fossil)’. Biogenic uptake and emissions are modelled separately. For land use change, all carbon emissions and uptakes are inventoried separately for each of the elementary flows. Soil carbon accumulation (uptake) via improved agricultural management is excluded from the model.NoneGaBi Modelling PrinciplesGaBi Water Modelling PrinciplesGaBi Agriculture Model DocumentationGaBi Land Use Change Model DocumentationGaBi Energy Modelling PrinciplesGaBi Refinery Modelling PrinciplesCut-off rules for each unit process: Coverage of at least 95 % of mass and energy of the input and output flows, and 98 % of their environmental relevance (according to expert judgement).

The documentation includes all relevant information in view of the data quality and scope of the application of the respective LCI result / data set. The dataset represents the state-of-the-art in view of the referenced functional unit.Sphera Solutions GmbHIABP-GaBiIBP-GaBiOverall quality according to different validation schemes
GaBi = 1,8 interpreted into "good overall quality" in the GaBi quality validation scheme
ILCD = 1,9 interpreted into "basic overall quality" in the ILCD quality validation scheme
PEF = 1,8 interpreted into "very good overall quality" in the PEF quality validation schemeThe dataset and systems, which are provided with our software and databases for public use into a broad user community, are constantly used, compared, benchmarked, screened, reviewed and results published in various external, professional and third party LCA applications in industry, academia and politics. So user feedback via the online GaBi forum or direct via user information is a standard routine in the maintenance and update process and leads to stable quality and constant control and improvement of data, if knowledge or technology improves or industrial process chains develop or change.GaBi user forumGaBi bug forumGaBi user communityGaBi conformity systemFully compliantFully compliantFully compliantFully compliantFully compliantNot definedUNEP SETAC Life Cycle InitiativeNot definedNot definedNot definedNot definedNot definedNot definedILCD Data Network - Entry-levelNot definedFully compliantFully compliantNot definedFully compliantNot definedSphera Solutions GmbHThe data set represents a cradle to gate inventory. It can be used to characterise the end-of-life situation of the respective commodity in a representative manner. Combination with individual unit processes using this commodity enables the generation of user-specific (product) LCAs. The data set does not necessarily fit for any possible specific supply situation - especially if significantly different technology routes exist - but is representative for a common supply chain situation.Sphera Solutions GmbH2021-02-01T00:00:00.000ILCD format 1.1Sphera Solutions GmbHNo official approval by producer or operator2021-02-01T00:00:00.00000.00.001Data set finalised; entirely publishedGaBi databasesSphera Solutions GmbHtrueOtherGaBi (source code, database including extension modules and single data sets, documentation) remains property of Sphera Solutions GmbH.
