Cations and activated sludge floc structure
… protein, ammonium production, percentile volatile solids reduction and iron in floc were obtained. These data indicate that iron-linked protein is released to solution when iron is reduced and its degradation is responsible for volatile solids reduction in anaerobic digestion. In aerobic …

Anaerobic co-digestion of municipal solid waste and sewage sludge.
… possesses the optimal combination of volume reduction, probability of success and potential for both energy and resource recovery. An innovative application of anaerobic processes is the co-digestion of sewage sludge and the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW). The purpose of …

A Comparative Study of Anaerobic Digestion Processes for Sewage Sludge
… scale digestion systems operating at different solids retention times (SRT) and organic loading rates (OLR). The digesters were fed with mixed primary and secondary waste (50/50 by weight) from the Blue Plains wastewater treatment facility. The digesters were operated until they reached steady …

Performance of Acid-Gas Anaerobic Digestion for Minimization of Siloxane and Hydrogen Sulfide Produced in Biogas for Energy Recovery
… (D5) as these are the most abundant volatile silicone compounds present in sludge. A bench scale acid reactor anaerobic digester was operated at varying solids retention times and temperatures in order to quantify biogas effects generated in the downstream gas reactor, which was …

Comparative Studies of Alternative Anaerobic Digestion Technologies
… of bench scale digestion systems at varying solids retention times (SRT) and organic loading rates (OLR). The digesters were fed a blend of primary and secondary residuals from the Blue Plains wastewater treatment facility. In each study phase, temperature phased anaerobic digestion was …

Anaerobic Digestion: Factors Effecting Odor Generation
Land application of anaerobically stabilized biosolids is a beneficial method of handling the solid residuals from a wastewater treatment plant. One of the main issues that restrict land application of biosolids is nuisance odors associated with biosolids. Despite its importance, few studies have …

Optimizing high-rate activated sludge: organic substrate for biological nitrogen removal and energy recovery
… mechanisms of A-stage processes operated at solids retention times (SRT) less than about one day. The overall objective of this study was to elucidate the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal mechanisms of short SRT activated sludge processes with a specific focus on the removal of the …

Sequential Anaerobic-Aerobic Digestion: A new process technology for biosolids product quality improvement
… digestion is widely used for stabilization of solids in sewage sludges. Recent changes in the priorities and goals of digestion processes are focusing more attention on the efficiency of these processes. Increasing hauling cost and restrictions for land applications are two factors which are …
