Energy recovery from the treatment water plant of Lakhdaria for electricity production

Abstract

he water that reaches our taps follows a path represented by the pipelines. It must be supplied with energy so that it can circulate along the pipeline, which therefore creates a link between energy and water. Water treatment plants in Algeria consume electrical energy for its pumping and lighting systems. The objective of this work is the study of feasibility of recovering energy at loads breezes which are generally installed on the field to break the water pressure to the reservoir. This gives an opportunity for innovation in the water sector, bringing water and energy without Co2 emissions and with inexhaustible energy and economic able to provide hydroelectric power almost continuously.
