Heavy metal removal from municipal sewage sludges by phytoextractio
In European Union countries up to 80% of sewage sludge is used in agriculture and forestry, whereas in Poland only 11% is used as fertilizer. The principal environmental concern is the inevitable presence of heavy metals when using sewage sludge as fertilizer. The main objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness of the phytoextraction process in removing heavy metals from sludges. A ...
متن کاملIntegrated chemical/physical and biological processes modelling Part 2 - Anaerobic digestion of sewage sludges
The development and validation of a two phase (aqueous-gas) integrated mixed weak acid/base chemical, physical and biological processes kinetic model for anaerobic digestion (AD) of sewage sludge are described. The biological kinetic processes for AD are integrated into a two phase subset of the three phase mixed weak acid/base chemistry kinetic model of Musvoto et al. (1997, 2000a,b,c). The ap...
متن کاملEvaluation of Potentially Toxic Elements Pollution Indices in Rangeland Northwest of Chadegan city (Isfahan Province)
Abstract Today, the pollution of Rangeland soils by various destructive pollutants has become one of the human-environmental problems. Lacking proper management of organic matter discharge can also increase the concentration of salts, heavy metals, and pathogenic microorganisms. In this study, to investigate and measure the concentration of toxic elements, 128 soil samples of Chadegan region w...
متن کاملOrganic chemicals in sewage sludges.
Sewage sludges are residues resulting from the treatment of wastewater released from various sources including homes, industries, medical facilities, street runoff and businesses. Sewage sludges contain nutrients and organic matter that can provide soil benefits and are widely used as soil amendments. They also, however, contain contaminants including metals, pathogens, and organic pollutants. ...
