Sewage sludge, the inevitable by-product of municipal wastewater treatment plant
operation, is a key issue in many countries due to its increasing volume and the impacts …

Land application of sewage sludge is increasingly used as an alternative to landfilling and
incineration owing to a considerable content of carbon and essential plant nutrients in …

Thermal processing of sewage sludge (SS) has received increasing attention in recent
years. Thermal processes valorise the carbon rich organic fraction of SS, while effectively …

Ceramsite was prepared from sewage sludge biochar (SSB). The migration, speciation
evolution, leaching toxicity, and potential environmental risk of heavy metals (HMs) in sludge …

Phosphorus (P) plays essential roles in crops growth. Natural mineral sources of phosphate
are non-renewable, overexploited and unevenly distributed worldwide, making P a strategic …

A variety of sludge originating from wastewater treatment is increasingly accumulating
worldwide, especially in the developed regions. Fortunately, phosphorus (P) in sludge can …

Bio-oil and pyrolysis gas (py-gas) are two pyrolysis products available for potential energy
recovery. Crude bio-oil, however, is typically corrosive and unstable, requiring special …

Combustion of pelletized municipal sewage sludge (MSS) can generate pestilent
byproducts: fly ash and slag. Comparisons of heavy metal sequential extraction results …

This study was conducted to investigate the speciation, bioavailability and environmental
risk of heavy metals (HMs) in chicken manure (CM) and water-washed swine manure (WSM) …

A review of the applicability of electron beam water radiolysis for sewage sludge treatment is
presented. Electron beam treatment has been proven to be a successful approach to the …
