Pilot‐scale evaluation of cascade anaerobic digestion of mixed municipal wastewater treatment sludges

open access: yesWater Environment Research, Volume 96, Issue 7, July 2024.
This one‐year study evaluated a pilot‐scale cascade anaerobic digestion (AD) system for the treatment of mixed municipal wastewater treatment sludges in North America. The performance, stability, and digestate quality of the cascade system were analyzed and compared with those of a conventional continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) digester (control).

Flocculating oil sands tailings with dual anionic/cationic polymers: Dose and charge density effects

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 102, Issue 1, Page 88-101, January 2024.
Abstract A two‐step process, with anionic hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) and cationic poly(vinylbenzyl trimethylammonium chloride) (PVBTMAC), was used to flocculate oil sands mature fine tailings (MFT). The charge density of HPAM and the dosages of HPAM and PVBTMAC were varied to maximize the dewatering of MFT and minimize the turbidity of the ...
