The treatment and reuse of water in Brazil is one the most discussed issues agricultural field. In recent years, scarcity changes rainfall regime has impacted production. management resources aims to make better use means that uses water, agriculture. Reuse are essential through innovative technologies corroborate efficiency extract maximum capacity avoid waste. an increasingly sustainable scen...

Wastewater reclamation is an upcoming approach that will significantly affect wastewater treatment systems. Despite the fact that technology for treating wastewater to an effluent water quality that meets various quality standards for reuse is already available and applied, the reuse of water is not just a simple and straightforward road. Significant additional energy and civil infrastructure i...

The treatment of the sewage sludge produced in the biological treatment plants have increasingly become a serious problem. For this reason, when the reuse and the disposal of the sludge are taken into consideration, the pathogens that the sludge contains should be seriously reduced. In this study, as an alternative to traditional treatment methods for the purpose of pathogen inactivation in sew...

This study examines the potential reuse of textile effluent treatment plant (ETP) sludge in building materials. The physico-chemical and engineering properties of a composite textile sludge sample from the southern part of India have been studied. The tests were conducted as per Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) specification codes to evaluate the suitability of the sludge for structural and non...

he 23 US. Army installations engaged in plating employ a variety of techniques to treat wastewater. While some sites have implemented recovery and T reuse, a majority still find it advantageous to precipitate the metals and discharge the wastewater. Sludge is collected in clarifiers, treated by gravity thickening, then dewatered in pressure or vacuum filters, lagoons or drying beds. The dewater...

Sludge management is a major issue for water utilities globally. Poor digestibility and dewaterability are the main factors determining the cost for sludge management, whereas pathogen and toxic metal concentrations limit beneficial reuse. In this study, the effects of low level nitrite addition to acidified sludge to simultaneously enhance digestibility, toxic metal removal, dewaterability and...

Environmental pollution has become a world wide concern. One of the main sources of such pollution is sewage wastewater and sludge. Their utilization without proper treatment can pollute the ecosystem (plant, soil, surface and ground water). Sewage wastewater and sludge contains several pollutants such as: pathogens, toxic organic compounds, heavy metals, high level of BOD & COD, seed weed. The...
