Fate of Micropollutants During Pyrolysis of Biosolids
FATE OF MICROPOLLUTANTS DURING PYROLYSIS OF BIOSOLIDS Approximately 250 tons of organic micropollutants, including pharmaceuticals, antimicrobials, and hormones, are discharged to the environment during land application of wastewater biosolids. Reusing wastewater biosolids is vital to the sustainability of wastewater treatment, but current treatment processes do not remove micropollutants from ...
متن کاملIBI White Paper: Pyrolysis and Gasification of Biosolids to Produce Biochar
Introduction The need to dispose of human-generated waste streams is growing in line with the expansion of urban population centers. This is particularly true for the byproducts of wastewater treatment. According to the US EPA, there are over 7 million dry tons of biosolids (stabilized sewage sludge) produced per year in the US. In 2004, 49% of biosolids were beneficially used—primarily for agr...
متن کاملBiochar from Pyrolysis of Biosolids for Nutrient Adsorption and Turfgrass Cultivation.
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. Additionally, the biochar produced has value as a soil conditioner. The objective of this work was to determine if biochar could be used to adso...

Aims: Peritoneal carcinomatosis is treated with Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and Heated Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) with or without Early Postoperative Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (EPIC) depending on the pathology involved. Since 2010 heated intraperitoneal oxaliplatin has been utilised in our institution. Our aim was to determine if there was a significant cost difference between pati...
متن کاملBacteriophage cocktail significantly reduces Escherichia coli O157
Foods contaminated with Escherichia coli O157:H7 cause more than 63,000 foodborne illnesses in the United States every year, resulting in a significant economic impact on medical costs and product liabilities. Efforts to reduce contamination with E. coli O157:H7 have largely focused on washing, application of various antibacterial chemicals, and gamma-irradiation, each of which has practical an...
