Ramboll advances five Wastewater Treatment projects to help restore Norway's Oslofjord. Projects target nitrogen and micropollutants through plant upgrades, biological treatment, advanced modelling and regional infrastructure planning. Ramboll is working with partners on five wastewater initiatives aimed at improving the environmental condition of Oslofjorden. Ramboll is collaborating with Norwegian municipalities, wastewater utilities and specialist partners across five projects intended to improve Oslofjorden's environmental condition. The initiatives cover nitrogen removal at Bekkelaget, micropollutant treatment planning for Oslo, an Aerated Membrane Bioreactor pilot at Søndre Follo, a proposed centralised facility at Tofte and upgrades to Rambekk. Reported outcomes include 80% nitrogen-removal performance at Bekkelaget, while other results remain proposals, studies or pilot-stage expectations. (PRESS RELEASE) OSLO, Norway, 12-Oct-2026 - /EuropaWire/ - Ramboll is working with water utilities, municipalities and specialist partners on five projects to improve wastewater treatment and support the recovery of Oslofjorden in Norway. The initiatives address nitrogen discharges and micropollutants through upgrades to existing plants, studies of new treatment facilities and trials of emerging technologies. Years of nutrient pollution, including nitrogen, have severely reduced oxygen levels in the fjord. Fish populations are nearly depleted, the lower growth limit for seaweed has declined, and algal blooms and slime are displacing other organisms. Wastewater treatment plant discharges remain a significant source of pollution, making improvements to treatment processes an important part of efforts to restore the fjord. Municipalities and treatment operators are preparing for stricter EU wastewater discharge rules covering discharge volumes and acceptable levels of nitrogen and micropollutants. The urgency is underscored by a recently published assessment of Oslofjorden's condition by the Norwegian Institute for Water Research. "Nitrogen from sewage and agriculture together accounts for around 75 percent of the nitrogen that flows into the Oslo Fjord. Therefore, it's very positive that a lot of municipalities are now actively working on plans for improving wastewater treatment, and that stricter requirements are in place for farmers to reduce ploughing of grain fields in the fall." Ellen Hambro, Environmental Director in the Norwegian Environment Agency, said. Ramboll's work involves external partner Holinger and clients Søndre Follo Wastewater Treatment Plant (SFR), Vestfjorden Wastewater Treatment Plant (VEAS), Oslo Municipality, Gørvik Municipality and Vestre Toten Municipality. Together, they are exploring and implementing technologies intended to improve treatment performance. Improved nitrogen removal at Bekkelaget wastewater treatment plant. Ramboll completed a full-scale nitrogen-removal improvement project at Bekkelaget Wastewater Treatment Plant in 2025. The facility is now exceeding the 75% nitrogen-removal requirement, with results to date indicating treatment performance of 80% and the removal of 1,129 tonnes of nitrogen. The programme involved examining existing plant operations, improving management approaches, evaluating new technologies and undertaking pilot trials. Alongside full-scale pilot testing, Ramboll specialists developed a digital model of the treatment process to simulate and assess possible improvements ahead of implementation. The project received Ramboll's sustainability prize in 2025. Preparing micropollutant treatment for Oslo Municipality. Although formal requirements have not yet been introduced, Oslo Municipality is investigating how a new treatment plant could remove micropollutants from wastewater discharges. Ramboll is reviewing available treatment technologies and preparing the facility's preliminary design. Because these technologies have seldom been applied in this setting and recent Norwegian experience in micropollutant removal is limited, Ramboll is collaborating with Swiss engineering company Holinger, drawing on its experience in this field. Developing a new nitrogen-removal approach with Søndre Follo. Søndre Follo Wastewater Treatment Plant (SFR) is taking steps to prepare for nitrogen removal ahead of any formal requirement affecting the utility. Its objective is to help protect Oslofjorden through a sustainable and cost-efficient approach using newer technologies. Ramboll is supporting SFR with preparations for nitrogen-removal capability and an ongoing pilot involving an Aerated Membrane Bioreactor. If testing is successful, the team anticipates a substantial reduction in energy consumption, potentially to just 10% of the energy normally required for nitrogen removal. Assessing a centralised treatment facility for Oslofjorden. Working with VEAS, Ramboll led a feasibility study into consolidating wastewater discharges from treatment plants along the fjord at a larger facility in Tofte, in the outer Oslofjord. The study indicated that the proposal could deliver significant socio-economic savings, nitrogen-removal efficiency exceeding 90%, and micropollutant removal. Ramboll subsequently advanced the concept to give municipalities a basis for deciding whether to participate. The work was undertaken in collaboration with Norconsult, Cowi, NIVA and DHI, with an emphasis on quality assurance and impartial decision-making. The concept study was completed in May 2025. Preparing Rambekk for new nitrogen-removal requirements. North of the Oslofjord, Gjøvik and Vestre Toten municipalities are planning a joint approach to future nitrogen-removal requirements. Ramboll is helping develop a proposal for an additional biological treatment stage at Rambekk Wastewater Treatment Plant in Gjøvik. The scope also includes a cost estimate for a transfer pipeline from Breiskallen Wastewater Treatment Plant in Vestre Toten to Rambekk and an assessment of future sludge-treatment options at Rambekk. Ramboll's team combines civil engineering, architecture, technical engineering, geotechnical and environmental expertise. Its findings will be assembled into a preliminary design report intended to support political decision-making by the municipalities. Further information.

Papaya Global named Best Contingent Workforce Solution at TIARA Talent Tech Awards Europe. Sep 29, 2026 Papaya Global won the Best Contingent Workforce Solution award at the TIARA Talent Acquisition and Talent Tech Awards Europe in London, where client SentinelOne was highly commended and three further clients were named finalists. United States, September 30, 2026 - Papaya Global, a global workforce management platform, was named winner of Best Contingent Workforce Solution at the TIARA Talent Acquisition & Talent Tech Awards Europe 2026, held on September 24, 2026 at the Royal Lancaster London. The category recognizes technology providers that address the compliance, classification and payment challenges facing organizations that engage contingent workers across multiple countries. In their citation, the judges pointed to the strength of the platform, its practical application, and its ability to deliver operational and financial benefits. They noted that the solution supports organizations in more than 180 countries and helps clients improve compliance, efficiency and workforce visibility across their global workforces. Giant Group and Workwell Global were also named finalists in the category. "Contingent workforce management breaks at the border," said Eynat Guez, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Papaya Global. "Different rules, different currencies, different payment rails, and almost no visibility into any of it. The teams doing this well are solving a problem most organizations do not see until something goes wrong. This recognition belongs to the people who build the platform and to the clients who trusted us with workforces that no single country's rules were written for." Papaya Global was also named a finalist in the Talent Tech Innovation Award category at the same ceremony. Several Papaya Global clients were recognized across the talent acquisition categories. SentinelOne received a high commendation in the Best Use of Technology & Innovation category for an entry submitted in partnership with Papaya Global. Bolt Technology OÜ was named a finalist in the same category, also in partnership with Papaya Global. Ramboll was named a finalist for the Early Careers Award, and South Pole was named a finalist for the Long-Term Partnership Award, both in partnership with Papaya Global. Papaya Global additionally sponsored The Papaya Global Contingent Workforce Award, a category recognizing in-house talent acquisition and workforce teams that have demonstrated leadership and operational excellence in managing contingent workforces. A member of the Papaya Global leadership team served on the judging panel for the category ahead of the ceremony. Barchester Healthcare won the award, with McDermott named as a finalist. "Judging this category gave us a front-row seat to how sophisticated in-house teams have become at managing contingent workforces across borders," said Adam Craighill, Global SVP of Revenue at Papaya Global. "Sponsoring the award was our way of putting that work in the spotlight, because the organizations solving compliance, classification and payment at scale do not always get the recognition they deserve."
