Renewable Energy from Sewage Sludge

At present, the main contributors to waste to energy are municipal solid waste, manufacturing waste and landfill gas. Probably we are all most familiar with the first (MSW), which involves the garbage that the garbage men pick up regularly at our homes and which goes to a landfill, a transfer station, or incinerator. Today we are going to introduce you to something relatively new on the alterna...

Lipid extraction for biodiesel production from municipal sewage water sludge

Municipal sewage is a source of various lipids where the lipids can be extracted and converted to biodiesel by transesterification reaction. The present study reveals the properties of extracted Lipids like, Viscosity mmS, Density, kg/m3, Acid value mg KOH/g, Iodine value g I2/100 g, Value of saponification(mg KOH/g), Free fatty acid (%),Capric acid (%),Lauric acid (%),Myristic acids (%),Steari...

Extraction of Lipids from Municipal Sewage Sludge for Production of Biodiesel via Transesterification Process

Biodiesel also called as fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) has become more attractive because of its environmental benefits. Biodiesel is the most promising renewable, biodegradable, alternative fuel is produced from various lipids sources. Here the municipal secondary sewage sludge is taken as potential sources of lipids. The potential of using sludge from municipal waste water treatment plant a...

Direct liquid - liquid extraction of lipid from municipal sewage sludge for biodiesel 1 production 2 3

16 Municipal sludge from wastewater treatment plants is a promising lipid feedstock for 17 biodiesel production as it contains a significant amount of lipids. However, the energy 18 necessary to remove its high water content is a major inconvenience for scaling up 19 because of the high associated cost. In addition, the expensive conventional sludge 20 drying methods are not effective enough fo...

Comparative assessment of municipal sewage sludge incineration, gasification and pyrolysis for a sustainable sludge-to-energy management in Greece.

For a sustainable municipal sewage sludge management, not only the available technology, but also other parameters, such as policy regulations and socio-economic issues should be taken in account. In this study, the current status of both European and Greek Legislation on waste management, with a special insight in municipal sewage sludge, is presented. A SWOT analysis was further developed for...
