We also contributed to the HAZOP (Hazard and Operability Analysis) to ensure maximum integration of safety aspects into the concept. Currently, we are working on the architectural design, structural stability, and building systems.<\/p>\n<p>This project is a crucial step in Aquafin\u2019s ambition to make wastewater sludge processing more efficient and sustainable. The two new facilities are expected to be operational by 2026, replacing three outdated sludge dryers in Deurne, Leuven, and Houthalen. With an investment value of over \u20ac110 million, this project plays a key role in achieving Aquafin\u2019s goal of eliminating fossil fuels from the sludge treatment process.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"block__inner cb__inner cb__inner--one\">\n\t<div class=\"col--12 col--center col--wrapper\">\n\t\t<div class=\"col col--6 editor-content\">\n\t\t\t<p><\/p>\n<div class='wistia_responsive_padding' style='padding: 56.25% 0 0 0;position: relative'><\/p>\n<div class='wistia_responsive_wrapper' style='height: 100%;left: 0;position: absolute;top: 0;width: 100%'><iframe class='wistia_embed' title='Aquafin slibdroger Video' src='https:\/\/fast.wistia.net\/embed\/iframe\/uzirj590m3?web_component=true&amp;seo=true' name='wistia_embed' width='100%' height='100%' frameborder='0' scrolling='no'><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"block__inner cb__inner cb__inner--media-content media-content media-content--left\">\n\t<div class=\"col--10 col--wrapper media-content__wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col col--6 media-content__content editor-content\">\n\t\t\t\t<h2>Dried Sludge Valorized as Fuel<\/h2>\n<p>With the construction of new sludge dryers, Aquafin is taking a significant step toward a CO\u2082-neutral future. These innovative facilities combine advanced technology, sustainable energy sources, and residual heat, setting a new standard for sludge treatment and contributing to the circular economy. The dried sludge does not end up as waste but is valorized as fuel in a planned mono-processing facility. Here, it will be used to generate high-pressure steam for industrial processes, making sludge treatment both more sustainable and circular. The locations in Beringen and Roeselare have been strategically chosen to ensure efficient sludge transport and minimize transport distances.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col col--6 media-content__media media-content__media--image\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"780\" height=\"460\" src=\"https:\/\/www.swecobelgium.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2024\/12\/Aquafin-slibdriger-02-780x460.png\" class=\"attachment-media-content size-media-content\" alt=\"Aquafin is begonnen met de bouw van twee CO\u2082-neutrale slibdrogers in Beringen en Roeselare.\" full-size-url=\"https:\/\/www.swecobelgium.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2024\/12\/Aquafin-slibdriger-02.png\" \/>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"block__inner cb__inner cb__inner--media-content media-content media-content--right\">\n\t<div class=\"col--10 col--wrapper media-content__wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col col--6 media-content__content editor-content\">\n\t\t\t\t<h2>Design &amp; Build Follows Successful Permit Process | Sweco-Loket<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The project was launched through a design-and-build procedure, with the Stadsbader-Deckx-Sweco-Huber team selected as the best bidder. After a complex permitting process, the permits for the Beringen and Roeselare sites were granted in June and August 2024, respectively. During the permitting phase, Sweco was responsible for the architectural, structural, and process design. In the execution phase, our teams are handling the detailed engineering of architecture, structural stability, and building systems, while also coordinating with Deckx and Huber, who are carrying out the detailed process engineering. At both sites, construction has now started with the installation of pile foundations and retaining walls for the deeply excavated sludge bunker.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col col--6
