TL;DR: The wet pyrolysis process, also known as hydrothermal carbonization, opens up the field of potential feedstocks for char production to a range of nontraditional renewable and plentiful wet agricultural residues and municipal wastes as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared and evaluated three different sewage sludges, two pyrolysis and four hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) sewchars, with respect to their stability in soil, perspective for nutrient recycling and potential use as soil amendments.

TL;DR: In this article, a combination of hydrothermal carbonization of sewage sludge with wet oxidation of the resulting process waters (PWs) is shown to be a favorable economic process leading to a wastewater that is better amenable to biological treatments.

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of short rotation willow coppice on wastewater treatment performance under Mongolian climatic conditions is still poorly understood for this purpose, one bed planted with willow ( Salix spec) and Poplar ( Populus spec) trees and one unplanted bed (as control) were operated over two years with pre-treated domestic wastewater under the same operating condition.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors defined and assessed 12 energetic and agricultural valorization concepts of sewage sludge for Germany to investigate whether the integration of upstream hydrothermal carbonization will have a positive effect on the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
