    abstract = {{R}ecent years came with a paradigm shift for wastewater treatment plants ({W}{W}{T}{P}s) to extend the sole purpose of contaminant removal to an additional function as resource recovery facilities. {T}his shift is accompanied by the development of new {E}uropean legislation towards better inclusion of resource recovery from wastewater. {H}owever, long operational lifespans and a multitude of treatment requirements demand thorough investigations into how resource recovery can be implemented sustainably. {T}o aid the formulation of new legislation for phosphorus ({P}) recovery specifically, in 2017 we conducted a survey on {A}ustrian {W}{W}{T}{P}-infrastructure, with a focus on {P} removal and sludge treatment, as well as disposal and sludge quality of all {W}{W}{T}{P}s above 2000 population equivalents ({P}{E}). {D}ata were prepared for analysis, checked for completeness and cross-checked for plausibility. {T}his study presents the major findings from this database and draws essential conclusions for the future recovery of {P} from wastewater. {W}e see results from this study as useful to other countries, describing the current state of the art in {A}ustria and potentially aiding in developing wastewater treatment and {P} recovery strategies.}
