Mesophilic anaerobic digestion of waste activated sludge: influence of the solid retention time in the wastewater treatment process
The performance of mesophilic anaerobic digesters of four large Italian wastewater treatment plants without primary sedimentation were studied. Only the waste activated sludge is stabilised by means of the mesophilic (35–37 8C) anaerobic digestion process. The anaerobic digesters generally worked with a hydraulic retention time in a range of 20–40 days and an organic loading rate of some 1 kg V...
متن کاملAnaerobic digestibility of the waste activated sludge discharged from large-scale membrane bioreactors.
Anaerobic digestibility of the waste activated sludge (WAS) discharged from large-scale membrane bioreactors (MBRs) and conventional activated sludge processes (CASs) were compared using batch trials. Four wastewater treatment plants were sampled. Results showed that the sludge from MBRs had poor anaerobic digestibility as it had lower volatile solid (VS) reduction rate and lower maximum biogas...
متن کاملApplication of anaerobic digestion products of municipal solid food wastes in treating wastewaters
Anaerobic digestion is the breakdown of biodegradable organic material by microorganisms in the absence of oxygen or in an oxygen-starved environment.This technology is superior to the landfilling and also the aerobic composting. The aim of the present study was to examine whether the effluent Volatile Fatty Acids from the anaerobic acidogenesis of the food waste can be used du to its high valu...
متن کاملBiogas production from tannery wastes – Evaluation of isolated microorganisms effect
The disposal and treatment of wastes generated in the leather industry has been the focus of several studies around the world. They intend to meet environmental legislation and make the process environmentally and economically viable. The anaerobic digestion process, which occurs in steps that involve acid and methane forming bacteria, can be an alternative since it turns the waste into renewab...
متن کاملAnaerobic codigestion of waste activated sludge and OFMSW: the experiences of viareggio and treviso plants (Italy).
The paper presents the results of two full-scale applications of the anaerobic co-digestion process of waste activated sludge together with the organic fraction of municipal solid wastes. The experiences were carried out at Viareggio and Treviso wastewater treatment plants (Italy). In the first plant, 3 tons per day of source sorted OFMSW were co-digested with waste activated sludge, increasing...
