Phosphorus recovery from sewage sludge using Aquacritox supercritical water oxidation process
Sewage sludge is a potential source of energy. A kilogram of dried sewage sludge contains approximately 20,000 BTU’s of energy. The challenge with releasing this energy is that sewage sludge, when collected from the bottom of a clarifier is 99% water. In order to release the energy present through gasification, pyrolysis or incineration, the water must be removed before oxidation in air can ...

BCR-088, PAHs in sewage sludge available again
Data obtained in the frame of the stability monitoring of BCR-088, PAHs in sewage sludge, cast doubt on the stability of benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) and benzo[e]pyrene (BeP). Closer investigation indicated that the cause was maybe not instability but a method bias. The distribution of the material was stopped to investigate closer and customers were informed about the potential problem. Subsequently, a ...
