Visit at Värpinge wetland from Nacka Municipality
A few weeks ago, colleagues from the Unit for Strategic Climate and Environmental Work at Nacka Municipality came to visit.
The initiative’s first report published
During late autumn 2024 and spring 2025, the first project of this initiative was carried out with co-funding from the Impact Innovation program Water Wise Societies.
Measurement of nitrous oxide emissions at the Käppala Association
Käppala Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP), located on Lidingö in Stockholm, is Sweden's third largest wastewater treatment plant and receives municipal wastewater from approximately 554,000 population equivalents (2024). The plant is located underground, which means that all process air can be collected and directed to a chimney.
We can now begin sampling the wetland in the Värpinge pilot!
During week 35, construction began on the first parts of the pilot in Värpinge, as part of the ISWIM project. This means we can now measure and monitor the flow of stormwater and the pollutants entering the stormwater facility.
We’re now installing the pilot!
Last week, construction began on the first components of the pilot in Värpinge, as part of the ISWIM project. This means we can now measure and monitor the flow of stormwater entering the stormwater facility.
The pilot plant at Testbed Ellinge handed over to VA SYD
During the spring and summer, we have been working on fine-tuning the pilot plant operation. On 15 July, the supplier Aquagreen handed over the plant to VA SYD.
