Sustainable Infrasystem Synergies: A Conceptual Framework 81 Sustainable Infrasystem Synergies: A Conceptual Framework Daniel Jonsson ONSIDER an example of interaction between different urban infrastructure systems (infrasystems) yielding ad- C vantageous synergies. Consider a future modern sewage treatment plant where water is being recycled back to nature and where unwanted residues are transformed into usable values. The sewage disposal system is also a part of the waste management system since organic domestic refuse is also removed through pipes instead of by garbage trucks, resulting in decreases in traff ic-related emissions. The sewage network is co-located with district heating links, since waste heat facilitates biological decomposition in the sewer pipes during distribution, which makes the final sewage treatment easier and cheaper because of a decreased use of chemicals. When the flow arrives at the sewage plant, heat pumps return residual heat back to the district heating system. In addition, sewage treatment has become much cheaper and more environmentally friendly since the sensory information system, predicting flow amount and compo- sition, provides input data to the cleaning processes. The information cables, drawn within the pipes to avoid excavating in the city, are primarily used as an urban broadband network housing Internet traff
