Journal ArticleDOI
The consistency of visual sewer inspection data
J. Dirksen,Francois Clemens,H. Korving,Frédéric Cherqui,P. Le Gauffre,Thomas Ertl,Hanns Plihal,K. Müller,C. T.M. Snaterse +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors assess the quality of the analysis of visual sewer inspection data by analysing data reproducibility; three types of capabilities to subjectively assess data are distinguished: the recognition of defects, the description of defects according to a prescribed coding system and the interpretation of sewer inspection reports.
Journal ArticleDOI
Renewable energy from wastewater - Practical aspects of integrating a wastewater treatment plant into local energy supply concepts
René Kollmann,Georg Neugebauer,Florian Kretschmer,Barbara Truger,Helene Kindermann,Gernot Stoeglehner,Thomas Ertl,Michael Narodoslawsky +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a case study of a wastewater treatment plant is presented, where different software tools are applied to support optimised integration: a central role plays the Geographical Information System based Energy Zone Mapping to analyse existing and future energy demands of different spatial units.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mapping thermal energy resource potentials from wastewater treatment plants.
Georg Neugebauer,Florian Kretschmer,René Kollmann,Michael Narodoslawsky,Thomas Ertl,Gernot Stoeglehner +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented a methodology to estimate thermal energy resource potentials of wastewater treatment plants taking spatial contexts into account, and demonstrated that the suggested technology might reduce up to 17% of the Austrian global warming potential of room heating.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysing wastewater temperature development in a sewer system as a basis for the evaluation of wastewater heat recovery potentials
TL;DR: In this article, a methodological framework is proposed to evaluate the suitability of a potential heat recovery site integrating both the energy supply and water pollution control requirements in a wastewater treatment plant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lost in calibration: why people still do not calibrate their models, and why they still should – a case study from urban drainage modelling
Franz Tscheikner-Gratl,Peter Zeisl,Carolina Kinzel,Johannes Leimgruber,Thomas Ertl,Wolfgang Rauch,Manfred Kleidorfer +6 more
TL;DR: The comparison of the model results using the different typical design storm events from all the surrounding data points showed substantial differences for the assessment of the sewers regarding urban flooding, emphasizing the necessity of uncertainty analysis for hydrodynamic models.
