Kläranlage Managua: Biogas und solare Schlammtrocknung PTAS Managua: Biogas y secado solar The projects entails financing of additional measures to the main measure Rehabilitation of Lake Managua - Wastewater Treatment Plant (WTP) Component (BMZ No. 1999.6670.6, EUR 25.45 million), which was completed at the end of 2016. The aim of the supplementary measure is to increase the purification capacity of the WTP by optimising the sludge treatment performanceand the ecologically and economically sensible recycling of waste products (sewage sludge, sewage gas) generated during the cleaning process, as well as the operationaland financial sustainability of the installation. The additional measure will finance supplies and services (i) to optimise the sludge treatment performance, (ii) to increase its (solar) sewage sludge drying and storage capacity and (iii) to produce biogas for energy use. By converting sewage sludge into nutrient-based aggregates (for sale as biofertiliser in agriculture and forestry) and converting biogas into electrical energy, the measure makes an important contribution to reducing the operating costs of the sewage treatment plant (economic aspect). By substituting fossil fuels with regenerative biogas, the project also reduces greenhouse gas emissions (climate aspect).The borrower is the Republic of Nicaragua, represented by the Ministry of Finance. The project is managed by Empresa Nicaragüense de Acueductos y Alcantarillados Sanitarios (ENACAL), a state water utility company. The total cost of the project is EUR 6,6 million. Of this amount, EUR 6,0 million will be financed by a loan from the Central Bank of Nicaragua (IDA conditions) and EUR 0,6 million by the Ministry of Finance. In addition, ENACAL will bear its own costs for the implementation unit as well as for any taxes on consulting services. Das FZ-Modul sieht die Finanzierung von ergänzenden Maßnahmen zu der Ende 2016 abgeschlossenen Hauptmaßnahme Sanierung des Managua-Sees - Komponente Kläranlage (BMZ-Nr. 1999.6670.6, 25,45 Mio. EUR) vor. Ziel der Ergänzungsmaßnahme ist es, über eine Optimierung der Schlammbehandlungsleistung eine Erhöhung der Reinigungskapazität der Kläranlage Managua zu erreichen und die ökologisch und betriebswirtschaftlich sinnvolle Wiederverwertung der beim Reinigungsprozess anfallenden Abfallprodukte (Klärschlamm, Klärgas) sowie die operative und finanzielle Nachhaltigkeit der Anlage weiter zu verbessern. Im Rahmen der Ergänzungsmaßnahme sollen Lieferungen und Leistungen (i) zur Optimierung der Schlammbehandlungsleistung, (ii) zur Erweiterung ihrer (solaren) Klärschlammtrocknungs- und Lagerungskapazitäten und (iii) zur Erzeugung von energetisch nutzbarem Biogas finanziert werden. Durch die Umwandlung von Klärschlamm in nährstoffhaltiges Granulat (zum Verkauf als Biodünger in der Land- und Forstwirtschaft) und die Umwandlung von Biogas in elektrische Energie leistet die Maßnahme einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Senkung der Betriebskosten der Kläranlage (Wirtschaftlichkeitsaspekt). Durch die Substitution fossiler Brennstoffe durch regeneratives Biogas wirkt das Vorhaben zudem treibhausgasmindernd (Klimaaspekt).Darlehensnehmer ist die Republik Nicaragua, vertreten durch das Finanzministerium. Projektträger ist das staatliche Wasserversorgungsunternehmen (WVU) Empresa Nicaragüense de Acueductos y Alcantarillados Sanitarios (ENACAL). Die Gesamtkosten des Vorhabens belaufen sich auf 6,6 Mio. EUR. Davon werden 6,0 Mio. EUR durch ein FZ-Darlehen (IDA-Konditionen) und 0,6 Mio. EUR aus Eigenmitteln des nicaraguanischen Finanzministeriums finanziert. Darüber hinaus übernimmt ENACAL mit eigenen Mitteln Kosten für die Durchführungseinheit sowie für anfallende Steuern auf Consultingleistungen.
