Sewage is the carrier of resources and energy, which contains great chemical energy and heat energy. The traditional sewage treatment process consumes energy, and the energy consumption is high. Under the background of carbon neutrality, China’s urban sewage treatment plants have achieved carbon neutrality operation in terms of energy self-sufficiency and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. To explore the feasibility of carbon neutrality in sewage treatment plants, the cases of carbon neutrality in sewage treatment plants at domestic and abroad were analyzed. And the implementation approaches and main emission reduction processes to achieve carbon neutrality were summarized. The technical challenges and research directions of future sewage treatment plants in China from the perspective of carbon neutrality are proposed.
Key words: Carbon neutrality / sewage treatment plant / low-consumption / energy recovery / carbon emission
