The results indicate that Fenton pretreatment is an effective technique for advanced waste activated sludge dewatering. The enhancement of sludge dewaterability by Fenton's reagent lies in the migration of sludge bound water due to the disintegration of sludge flocs and microbial cells lysis.
Read MoreElectro-dewatering (ED) pretreatment could improve sludge dewatering performance and remove heavy metal, but the effect of ED pretreatment on nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emission and related functional genes in sludge composting process is still unknown, which was firstly investigated in this study. The results revealed that ED pretreatment changed the physicochemical characteristics of sludge and ...

Read MoreDewatering converts sludge from a flowing mixture of liquids and solids to a cake-like substance more readily handled as a solid. The characteristics of dewatered sludge depend on the type of sludge, chemical conditioning, and treatment processes ... NPDES, pretreatment and sludge program officials need sludge
Read MoreThe dewatering performance, the properties of the treated sludge, the composition and distribution of EPS were investigated to discuss the dewatering mechanism of sludge. Adding 20% DS (mass of dry solids in sludge) of MCCP reduced the moisture content (MC) and the specific resistance of filtration (SRF) of the sludge by 40% and 55%, respectively.
Read MoreThe effect of enzyme pre-treatment on dewaterability of anaerobically digested sludge was investigated at both laboratory and pilot scale. Our results revealed a significant increase in cake solid content (27% cake solids compared to 18% without enzyme pre-treatment), using an enzyme dose of only 20 mg/L.
Read MoreThis study was conducted to investigate the effect of ultrasound pretreatment of sewage sludge during digestion on methane production and dewatering parameters. Particle size analysis was used to evaluate changes in the particle size distribution (PSD) at different stages of digestion.
Read MoreThe dewatering of sludge after digestion significantly reduces sludge volume, which then leads to a reduction of the cost of transportation and reduction in the amount of space required for storage. Typical cake solids are 20–40% depending on sludge types and dewatering method used (Werther and Ogada, 1999).
Read MoreMost of these pretreatment technologies improved sludge dewatering characteristics by disrupting EPS. This is because the EPS can bind cells and particulate matter together, and the main components of EPS have a strong affinity for water (Bala Subramanian et al. 2010; Dvořák et al. 2011). Thus, elucidating the role of EPS in sludge dewatering ...

Read MoreIn this study, the feasibility of electro-dewatering (EDW) as a pretreatment of the subsequent bio-drying process (EB process) was investigated from the point of view of the influence of EDW on the microbial biodegradability of sludge. The results showed that suitable EDW pretreatment was beneficial for microbial g
