The production and management of sludge in wastewater treatment plants is a significant
environmental issue. Sludge is a complex material, treated primarily by biological …

Sludge from wastewater treatment plants can act as a repository and crucial environmental
provider of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Over the past few years, people's knowledge …

This book will present the theory involved in wastewater treatment processes, define the
important design parameters involved, and provide typical values of these parameters for …

Aquaculture has experienced a burgeoning growth worldwide in the last decade resulting in
nearly 50% of seafood originating from aquaculture farms. However, there are less studies …

Sewage-water treatment comprehends primary, secondary, and tertiary steps to produce
reusable water after removing sewage contaminants. However, a sewage-water treatment …

Nitrogen (N) recycling is essential for efficient food production in regenerative life support
systems. Crew members with a high workload need 90–100 g of protein per person per day …

The aim of this paper is to minimise the energy requirement of autothermal thermophilic
aerobic digestion (ATAD). To this end, a dynamic ATAD model is presented and assessed. A …

Autothermal thermophilic aerobic digestion (ATAD) has been used to stabilize organic waste
since the 1960s and is considered sustainable technology. ATAD has several advantages …

Thermophilic aerobic digestion (TAD) was applied to further reduce ARGs and heavy metal
resistance genes (HMRGs) as well as class 1 integrons (intI1) in sludge from anaerobic …

Autothermal thermophilic aerobic digestion (ATAD) is a promising process for sewage
sludge stabilization. Batch experiments were conducted on sewage sludge collected from a …
