The bioavailability of cadmium from sewage sludge-amended soils.

open access: yes, 1999
PhDCadmium is a potentially toxic trace element present, at low concentrations, in a variety of environmental media. The processing of waste-waters produces sewage sludge, in which cadmium may be present at high concentrations.

Mechanical sludge disintegration for the production of carbon source for biological nutrient removal. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The primary driver for a successful biological nutrient removal is the availability of suitable carbon source, mainly in the form of volatile fatty acids (VFA). Several methods have been examined to increase the amount of VFAs in wastewater.

BY-PRODUCTS FROM SEWAGE SLUDGE

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Public Health, 1920
Economy and conservation have worked for years at the problem of profit from sewage. Mr. Weston notes that many American cities have potential by-products enough to make recovery worth trying. English cities have found the American Miles process profitable. It will at least lessen the cost of sewage disposal.

Decentralised treatment of concentrated sewage at low temperature in a two-step anaerobic system: two upflow-hybrid septic tanks

open access: yes, 2002
The decentralised treatment of concentrated sewage (about 3,600 mgCOD/1) at low temperature was investigated in a two-step anaerobic system: two-anaerobic hybrid (AH) septic tanks (each 0.575 m(3)).

Fate of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons during composting of lagooning sewage sludge [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The fate of 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), targeted by the USEPA agency, has been investigated during composting of lagooning sludge. Composting shows efficient decrease of the content and the bioavailability of each PAH.

Developing and Testing a Citywide Inclusive Sanitation Financial Tool

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Citywide Inclusive Sanitation (CWIS) represents a paradigm shift in the provision of safely managed sanitation services with a framework of three outcomes—equity, safety and sustainability. There are several sanitation financial tools, but none of these fully address all CWIS outcomes. Citywide Inclusive Sanitation Financial Tool (CWIS‐FiT) is
