Evaluation of pre-magnetization on the dewaterability of waste activated sludge treated by ozonation
The dewaterability of waste activated sludge (WAS) plays the key role in sludge dewatering in wastewater treatment plants. The magnetic field as a source of clean energy has been reported to be able to cause changes in sludge properties and to enhance ...

Aerobic Granular Sludge: Perspectives for Excess Sludge Management and Resource Recovery
Abstract Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) technology is gaining increasing interest globally. However, several aspects are still challenging its installation, as the integration into existing municipal wastewater treatment plants. The operation of AGS units in continuous flow mode could facilitate that integration; yet has only been experienced at lab and

Digesters as Heat Storage – Energetic Assessment of Flexible Variation of Digester Temperature
Using digesters as heat storage with variation in digester temperatures is an energetically holistic approach for modern heat management implemented at water resource recovery facilities. The heat‐saving potentials and performance as heat storage of digesters in four scenarios differing in flexibility of digester temperatures compared to state‐of‐the ...

Ultrasonic pretreatment for Enhancing Sludge disintegration and Resource Utilization: A mini review [PDF]
As a byproduct of sewage treatment plants, sludge presents dual characteristics of “resource” and “pollution”. While it enriches nutrients from wastewater, it also contains a portion of toxic substances.
