Abstract
Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTP) will face great challenges in the coming years, such as: reaching energy self-sufficiency and the reuse of treated water. Therefore, the purpose of this project is to present a contextual basis of the situation of WWTPs and their future possibilities to migrate to a Circular Economy based operation. It was found that energy self-sufficiency can be implemented in 5.8% of the country's WWTPs and that the reuse of treated water in irrigation and infiltration is barely close to 10%. These numbers demonstrate the need for public policies and regulatory schemes that promote sustainable wastewater treatment systems.
