Energy demand in sludge dewatering [PDF]

open access: yesWater Research, 2005
This work investigates the energy required to dewater a suspension, i.e., activated sludge dewatered by centrifugation or consolidation. Total energy input to the suspension from the dewatering device, bond strength between adjacent water and solid surface, and intra-cake friction loss were evaluated for original and flocculated sludges. In centrifugal

The enhanced dewaterability of sludge by a starch-based flocculant combined with attapulgite

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Coagulation/flocculation is one of the most widely used and cost-effective pretreatment methods for improving the dewaterability of sludge. In this study, a cationic modified starch-based flocculant (St-CTA) in conjunction with a popular clay ...

Dewatering of sludge obtained by neutralisation from sulfuric-acid waste solutions [PDF]

open access: yesMining and Metallurgy Engineering Bor, 2014
The aim of this paper was to investigate the possibility of removing the liquid phase from the sludge using the mechanical dewatering methods. The sludge was obtained by neutralization of sulfuric acid waste solution from the process of copper ...

Electro-dewatering (EDW) as Hybrid Dewatering Technology: Influence of Operating Parameters and Energy Efficiency [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2023
Electro-dewatering (EDW) is a hybrid technology for separating liquids from solids in the wastewater sludge dewatering process. EDW has excellent prospects because it is able to remove water from sludge with high efficiency and low energy consumption ...

Evaluation of pre-magnetization on the dewaterability of waste activated sludge treated by ozonation

open access: yesWater Cycle, 2023
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 ...

Contribution to the study of flocculation of digestate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The paper deals with the intensification of separating the solid phase of digestate using flocculants only. The separated solid phase should subsequently be used in agriculture for fertilising.

Optimization of thermal–alkaline pretreatment for dewatering of excess sludge followed by thermal/persulfate oxidation for the elimination of extracellular ARGs in TAP-treated filtrate

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2023
This study evaluated the dewatering of excess sludge and the removal of extracellular antibiotic-resistant genes (eARGs) from the treated filtrate by thermal–alkaline pretreatment (TAP) and thermal/persulfate (PS).

Biochar from Pyrolysis of Biosolids for Nutrient Adsorption and Turfgrass Cultivation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
At water resource recovery facilities, nutrient removal is often required and energy recovery is an ever-increasing goal. Pyrolysis may be a sustainable process for handling wastewater biosolids because energy can be recovered in the py-gas and py-oil ...
