Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a widely used technology to valorise food waste for biogas
production yet a considerable amount of digestate remains under-utilised. Sustainable …

Sewage sludge is an inevitable by-product of biological wastewater treatment process and
contains various toxic substances such as pathogens, heavy metals and organic …

Heavy metals, the main harmful substances in the sludge, are easily enriched, have adverse
effects on the treatment and disposal of the sludge. In this study, two conditioners (modified …

Hydrothermal treatments (HTT) at moderate temperatures (120–200° C) were investigated in
this study for the management and valorization of food waste digestate (DFW). The …

Conventional conditioners are not conducive to the sludge separate incineration process.
The agricultural wastes bamboo powder (BP) and rice husk powder (RHP) have strong …

Poor dewaterability is a bottleneck of the disposal of digestate from food waste (DFW).
However, the dewatering mechanism remains unclear due to the complex composition of …

It is known that sludge dewaterability improves during the thermal hydrolysis process (THP);
however, the effect of thermal hydrolysis and anaerobic digestion (THP-AD) on sludge …

Electro-dewatering (EDW) is an efficient and energy-saving technology for deep dewatering
