Introduction
It is foreseeable that the recovery of chemical energy with methane as an intermediate product will remain a key method of energy recovery in municipal wastewater treatment. Among chemical energy conversion pathways, AS + AD and OC + AD can be optimized by co-digestion of municipal organic waste to enhance methane production.
In addition to thermal technologies, decontamination, and disinfection processes are paramount in wastewater treatment. Developing new decontamination and disinfection systems using solar photons must gain significant attention and visibility as a promising solution for achieving effective and sustainable disinfection.

An energy storage system (ESS) for electricity generation uses electricity (or some other energy source, such as solar-thermal energy) to charge an energy storage system or device, which is discharged to supply (generate) electricity when needed at desired levels and quality. ESSs provide a variety of services to support electric power grids.
Depending on its design, a power supply unit may obtain energy from various types of energy sources, like electrical energy transmission systems, electromechanical systems such as generators and alternators, solar power converters, energy storage devices such as a battery and fuel cells, or other power supply.
Other types of ESSs that are in various stages of research, development, and commercialization include capacitors and super-conducting magnetic storage. Hydrogen, when produced by electrolysis and used to generate electricity, could be considered a form of energy storage for electricity generation.
Energy storage systems improve electricity stability by offering ancillary services like frequency control and voltage support. They can adapt fast to changes in grid conditions, such as unexpected increases or decreases in power supply or demand, assisting in keeping the frequency and voltage within acceptable operational limits.
