Recycled biowaste as a source of infection [PDF]
, 2006 Biowaste and sewage sludge can be used as a fertiliser and soil amendment in agriculture. However if not treated efficiently before use, such products can contain microbial pathogens that pose a health risk for humans and animals. This study investigated

Scenario Analysis for Selecting Sewage Sludge-to-Energy/Matter Recovery Processes
Energies, 2021 The sewage sludges are the byproducts of the wastewater treatment. The new perspective of the wastewater value chain points to a sustainable circular economy approach, where the residual solid material produced by sewage sludge treatments is a resource ...

Tunable amylopectin graft copolymers for flocculating and dewatering iron ore tailings
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract Polyacrylamide (PAM), the standard flocculant for mining tailings, often produces turbid supernatants and poorly dewatered sediments, limiting water reuse and tailings densification. We synthesized amylopectin‐graft‐poly[(2‐methacryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium chloride (AP‐g‐PMETAC) copolymers with systematically varied graft frequency (N =

N2O and NO Emissions from CFBC Cofiring Dried Sewage Sludge, Wet Sewage Sludge with Coal and PE
Journal of Combustion, 2013 Experiments on cofiring dried sewage sludge, wet sewage sludge with coal and polyethylene (PE) were carried out on a pilot scale 0.15MWt circulating fluidized bed combustion (CFBC) plant, and the influence of furnace temperatures, cofiring rates on N2O ...

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract The objective of this work is to demonstrate that the inclusion of an up‐flow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB reactor) within an industrial wastewater treatment plant reduces the plant's investment and operating costs compared to a system based solely on conventional complete‐mix activated sludge (CMAS), operating under the same design principles ...

The fate of endocrine disrupting chemicals during activated sludge treatment [PDF]
, 2010 A significant route for Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) such as natural and synthetic estrogens and nonylphenolics to enter the environment is via sewage treatment.

Decay of escherichia coli in soil following the application of biosolids to agricultural land [PDF]
, 2003 The decay of Escherichia coli in a sandy loam soil, amended with enhanced and conventionally treated biosolids, was investigated in a field experiment following spring and autumn applications of sewage sludge.

ChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.The addition of Na2CO3 or K2CO3 to sewage sludge prior to combustion leads to the production of ashes containing phosphate in the form of buchwaldite‐like phases (Ca(Na/K)PO4). Compared to conventional sewage sludge mono‐ashes, such Na‐ or K‐ashes show greatly increased P‐solubilities and proved to be potent P‐fertiliser materials in greenhouse ...
