Complex "Dikanivka" & "Bezludivka" wastewater treatment plant (WWTP, Kharkiv) is oneof the biggest in Ukraine. Mixture of industrial and domestic wastewater is treated on thestation. Great volume of sewage sludge has been produced and accumulated for forty years ofthe plant operation, Environment of the region has been affected rather seriously in result ofout-of-date sludge dewatering system exploitation and heaps of dewatered sludge on theterritory of the plant Environment stabilization in the area of sludge treatment is an urgentproblem of the region, Phytoremediation as a promising natural technology for the purpose isdiscussed in the article.Sewage sludge is rich in organic matter and nutrient elements (nitrogen and phosphates)therefore it could be applied for soil fertilization. On the other hand, due to high heavy metals(Cd, Ni, Cu, Cr) concentration in sludge, contamination with enteric parasites, pH less than5,5 there is restriction for sludge application in agricultural production,Willow (Salix spp,) is discussed as a plant for phytoremediation of the territory and forsubstratum properties melioration because of its availability to accumulate heavy metals,regulate concentration of nutrients, high biomass production and high environmentaltolerance.Experiment in situ has to be carried for the plant-remediater selection and for investigation ofsludge agricultural properties dynamic.

Abstract:Phosphorus is a major substance that is needed especially for agricultural production or for the industry. At the same time it is an important component of wastewater. At present, the waste management priority is recycling and this requirement is also transferred to wastewater treatment plants. Substances in wastewater can be recovered and utilized. In Europe (in Germany and Austria already legally binding), access to phosphorus-containing sewage treatment is changing. This paper dealt with the issue of phosphorus on the sewage treatment plant in Nitra. There are several industrial areas in Nitra where record major producers in phosphorus production in sewage. The new wastewater treatment plant is built as a mechanicalbiological wastewater treatment plant with simultaneous nitrification and denitrification, sludge regeneration, an anaerobic zone for biological phosphorus removal at the beginning of the process and chemical phosphorus precipitation. The sludge management is anaerobic sludge stabilization with heating and mechanical dewatering of stabilized sludge and gas management. The aim of the work was to document the phosphorus balance in all parts of the wastewater treatment plant - from the inflow of raw water to the outflow of purified water and the production of excess sludge. Balancing quantities in the wastewater treatment plant treatment processes provide information where efficient phosphorus recovery could be possible. The mean daily value of P tot is approximately 122.3 kg/day of these two sources. The mean daily value of P tot is approximately 122.3 kg/day of these two sources. There are also two outflows - drainage of cleaned water to the recipient - the river Nitra - 9.9 kg Ptot/day and Ptot content in sewage sludge - about 120.3 kg Ptot/day - total 130.2 kg Ptot/day.
