| Summary: | The thesis highlighted on the potential of sewage as a renewable source of energy. The objective is to simulate the harvested renewable energy from sewage treatment system using Homer software which is practical and user friendly. Based on case study in Malaysia particularly in Klang Valley; where the source of sewage is abundant due to high population, the sewerage treatment plant Pantai 1 and Bunus have been simulated using Homer and produce positive result with electricity generation of 1,314,000kWh/year and 2,134,500 kWh/year constitute 33% and 55% of the plant electricity consumption. It shows that there is a huge potential energy generation from waste sources in Malaysia and further analysis on the techno economic also presented |
