New nitrous oxide project at Chalmers University of Technology
Last week, researcher Frank Persson from Water, Environment and Technology at Chalmers was informed that his project proposal, “Microbial-based strategies to reduce nitrous oxide emissions from wastewater treatment: Insights from laboratory and full-scale systems”, has been awarded 554 000 Euro.
Many study visits this spring, but we can accommodate more
Last week, two of the eight study visits that Testbädd Ellinge is hosting in April and May took place.
Community of Practice N2O meeting at Käppala WWTP April 21, 2026

From Plate to Pixel is attracting considerable interest
The presentation tour for From Plate to Pixel has now begun.
Vinnova project completed, but Testbed Ellinge lives on
This week, the Vinnova project Testbed Ellinge – drying, pyrolysis and productisation of sewage sludge held its internal final conference. But Testbed Ellinge lives on!
Good news! From Plate to Pixel approved!
“From Plate to Pixel – Faster Decisions for Safe and Sustainable Water” is one of nine projects granted funding under the call “Impact Innovation: Transition Lab within Water Wise Societies 2025 for Sustainable Water for All.”
New project about stormwater treatment
ReCircWater addresses a pressing challenge for the South Baltic region: how to treat, manage and reuse urban stormwater so fewer pollutants reach the Baltic Sea and more water can be put to beneficial use.
Congratulations Ellinor!
Today, Ellinor Frank successfully defended her thesis ”Microbial Source Tracking for Bathing Water Quality Assessment: E. coli and Bacterial Communities in Coastal Environment”.
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.
We are struggling with the pilot
Since 14 January, we have now had 30 operating days with the pilot. But we are still struggling with both the dryer and the pyrolysis to get a continuous operation.
