N2 - Waste water is a valuable but under-exploited energy source for air conditioning or hot water supplies in society. Recently in Japan, although legislation for waste water heat recovery or development of heat recovery devices has progressed, there has been little research done into how this household-scale heat recovery could be controlled within large waste water networks. Without proper control, waste water heat can be lost during low-demand time periods, and upstream users can thoroughly exploit the heat at the expense of downstream users, which can limit the areas where heat recovery is possible. Our research aims to optimize heat recovery on a city scale, using a model and numerical solutions, which are constructed in a decentralized way. The results suggest that the proposed model and numerical solutions can reduce and level out the overall power consumption both in a virtual waste water network and a real network in Fukuoka city, Japan.
