مستخلص:	I takt med att städerna växer ökar belastningen på de kommunala avloppsreningsverken. Käppalaförbundet förutspår att antalet anslutna personekvivalenter till Käppalaverket kommer att öka med över 160 % under de kommande tre decennierna. En ökad belastning leder till en större mängd slam som måste behandlas. Detta görs idag med stabilisering genom mesofil rötning samt efterföljande avvattning och hygienisering. Samtidigt finns ett behov av hållbara energikällor i samhället, dit avloppsreningsverken bidrar genom tillhandahålla energirik biogas som biprodukt från rötningen. Utrötningsgraden är beroende av slammets uppehållstid i rötkammaren och uppehållstiden kommer att bli kortare i takt med att belastningen ökar. Termofil rötning har identifierats som ett möjligt alternativ till inköp av ytterligare rötkammarvolym då metoden har rapporterats ge en snabbare stabilisering och därmed ett likvärdig resultat med kortare uppehållstid. Dessutom finns indikationer för att termofil rötning kan producera en större mängd biogas per enhet organiskt material i jämförelse med mesofil rötning. För att utreda huruvida Käppalaförbundet kan åtnjuta dessa fördelar har ett termofilt rötningsförsök bedrivits i pilotskala. Pilotanläggningen bestod av en 5 m³ rötkammare som matades semikontinuerligt med 65 mass% primärslam och 35 mass% överskottsslam. Försöket inleddes med en temperaturövergång från en mesofil ymp till termofila betingelser, följt av att processen tilläts acklimatisera. Processen drevs därefter under tre uppehållstider med en längd på 18 dygn vardera. Samtliga driftparametrar härleddes i den mån det var möjligt från fullskalig slambehandling på Käppalaverket. De experimentella resultaten jämfördes med simuleringsresultat baserade på den matematiska modellen Anaerobic Digestion Model No. 1. Temperaturövergången och acklimatiseringen utfördes med framgång. Vid referensbelastningen var utrötningsgraden 54.4 % och den specifika metanproduktionen var 0.221 Nm3 CH4/kgVS, vilke As cities grow, the load on the municipal wastewater treatment plants increases. The Käppala Association predicts that the number of population equivalents connected to the Käppala Wastewater Treatment Plant will increase by over 160 % in the coming three decades. An increased load leads to a larger amount of sludge that must be treated. This is done today with stabilization through mesophilic anaerobic digestion and subsequent dewatering and hygienization. At the same time, there is a need for sustainable energy sources in society, to which wastewater treatment plants contribute by providing energy-rich biogas as a by-product from the anaerobic digestion. The degree of digestion is dependent on the retention time of the sludge in the digester and the retention time will become shorter as the load increases. Thermophilic anaerobic digestion has been identified as a possible alternative to the investment of additional digester volume as the method has been reported to provide a faster stabilization and thus an equivalent result with a shorter retention time. In addition, there are indications that thermophilic anaerobic digestion is able to produce a larger amount of biogas per unit of organic material in comparison with mesophilic anaerobic digestion. To evaluate whether the Käppala Association can enjoy these benefits, a thermophilic anaerobic digestion experiment has been conducted on a pilot scale. The pilot plant included a 5 m³ digester which was fed semi-continuously with 65 mass% primary sludge and 35 mass% waste activated sludge. The experiment began with a temperature transition from a mesophilic inoculum to thermophilic conditions, followed by allowing the process to acclimatize. The process was operated thereafter for three retention times with a length of 18 days each. All process parameters were derived as far as possible from the full-scale sludge treatment at Käppala Wastewater Treatment Plant. The experimental results were compared with simulation re
