Regenerative Energie
Sewage pumps are among the main electromechanical equipment of the sewage and wastewater management facilities around Europe for over 30 years. Their operational life is around 15-20 years and a significant number of these equipments are non-operating. The need for the replacement of these pumps leads to an increased number of them which should be disposed off in the forthcoming years.
Although, the WEEE Directive (2002/96/EC) for 'Waste of electrical and electronic equipment†is the main related legislation, the sewage pumps are not included. This work investigates the possibilities for recycling of sewage pumps used in wastewater management facilities after its renovation or upgrade. Evaluation results indicate that there is high potential for materials recovery; thus, this could contribute to the effort for the minimization of their impact to the environment, through the materials recovery and safe handling of non-operating industrial and possibly hazardous waste electrical equipment.

Transformatives Klimarecht: Raum, Zeit, Gesellschaft

This article contends that climate law should be conceived as inherently transformative in a double sense. The law not only guides the necessary transformation of economy and society, but is itself undergoing transformation.
