چکیده

Currently, the efficiency improvement of industrial wastewater treatment plant (iwwtp) has turned into a noticeable challenge for plants operator. in addition, decreasing in the cost and energy consumption of wastewater treatment plants has attracted great interest by water agencies and iwwtp management. since iwwtps are energy-intensive facilities, the need for cost-efficient and reliable treatment processes has significantly increased so as to meet the standards of environmental regulations and national goals. determination of energy efficiency of iwwtps is a starting point for any energy-saving initiative. in this paper, a case study was carried out in 79 wwtps in iran's industrial zones to identify electrical energy efficiency indices (eei). in order to achieve a reliable result, data envelopment analysis (dea) was applied by lingo11 software. the electrical energy efficiency index was estimated by regression equations for plants with different level of treatment (ready to discharge to the river, irrigation of green spaces, and agriculture) using minitab17 software. the obtained results showed that only 1% of the treatment plants have high energy efficiency index (0.8
