The effluent treatment plant sludge is one of the major sources of contamination with toxic metals. Since the sludge contains heavy metals, it must be pretreated to reduce the contamination. The heavy metals from the sludge can be reduced/ separated by washing it with a suitable leaching solution. In the present study, the efficiencies of three leaching solutions to remove the contaminants from...

there are more than 350 wastewater treatment plants distributed across different parts of oman. some of them produce large quantities of domestic sewage sludge, particularly this study focused on characterizing domestic sludge of six treatment plants that may contain various pollutants, therefore the proper management of domestic sewage sludge is essential.samples of domestic sewage sludge were...

This paper aims to form a unified concept of the integrated use different wastewater treatment methods resistant biological stage technological systems under influence such toxic factors as antibiotics and surfactants. The processes mechanical treatment, ozonation, UV irradiation, electrolytic anodic oxidation were implemented in an electrotechnological facility. Wastewater quality was determin...

Vanadium containing sludge is a by-product of vanadium pentoxide obtained by hydrometallurgical methods from slag that can be estimated as promising technogeneous raw material for production. The phase analysis vanadium-containing the X-ray diffraction method showed it contains in spinel form (FeO∙V2O3). various oxidation roasting treatment were studied increasing extraction into solution. It m...

Abstract The integration of anaerobic ammonia oxidation (anammox) into the membrane bioreactor (MBR) process (AX-MBR) is proposed in this study to reduce operating costs. temperature was not controlled during study. Anammox, denitrification, and nitrification were studied AX-MBR for 210 days. reactor fed with mainstream sewage from Guilin City, China. results showed that could run reduced disso...

Municipal sludge is characterized by high organic matter content, viscosity, and fine particles, resulting in poor dewatering performance. This article analyzes the composition properties of municipal sludge, examines factors affecting performance mechanisms corresponding to each influencing factor, introduces chemical conditioning detail. Chemical includes flocculation conditioning, oxidation ...

background sewage sludge (biosolids) is a byproduct of wastewater treatment that accumulates in large quantities. effective stabilization and disinfection of sewage sludge prior to land application are necessary to not only protect human health, but also to induce the public its benefits and safety. currently, many wastewater treatment plants in iran dispose great amounts of untreated sewage sl...
