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 ...

Research on Dewatering Ability of Municipal Sludge under the Treatment of Coupled Acid and Microwave
Municipal sludge is a by‐product of urban sewage treatment; it has high water content and contains many hydrophilic extracellular polymeric substances (EPS). It is difficult to achieve deep dewatering of sludge. Therefore, it is necessary to find an efficient method to treat sludge.

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.

A review on the dewaterability of bio-sludge and ultrasound pretreatment
Bio-sludge, which contains large quantities of water, biomass and extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), is difficult to be dewatered as a "super-compactable" sludge [Water Res. 35 (5) (2001) 1358]. Reported water content in bio-sludge was commonly about 80-90% wt after dewatering process.
