Journal ArticleDOI
Clean solid biofuel production from high moisture content waste biomass employing hydrothermal treatment.
TL;DR: In this article, mild hydrothermal (HT) conversion processes are used to produce clean solid biofuel from high moisture content waste biomass (bio-waste) with high nitrogen (N)/chlorine (Cl) content.
Journal ArticleDOI
A technical and economic evaluation of the pyrolysis of sewage sludge for the production of bio-oil
Y. Kim,Wayne J. Parker +1 more
TL;DR: Temperature and volatile solids were the most important factors affecting the yield of oil and char, however, sludge type also affected both results, and pre-treated sludge with either acids, a base or a catalyst did not improve the quantity of oil produced.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic transition of a methanogenic population in response to the concentration of volatile fatty acids in a thermophilic anaerobic digester.
TL;DR: The simple methanogenic population in the thermophilic anaerobic digester significantly responded to the environmental conditions, especially to the concentration of VFAs.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Quest for Active Carbon Adsorbent Substitutes: Inexpensive Adsorbents for Toxic Metal Ions Removal from Wastewater
TL;DR: In this article, the quest to find an economically viable substitute to active carbon adsorbent to remove toxic metal ions was described, and a brief discussion of design of batch and column adsorption experiments, development of inexpensive adsorbents, and experimental conditions of metal ions removal by batch or column procedures is included.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental and economic assessment of sewage sludge handling options.
TL;DR: In this paper, the environmental and economic consequences of four recycling and disposal options for municipal sewage sludge have been assessed using the energy system model MARTES, and the results showed that agricultural application had the lowest cost of the options, whereas co-incineration had the highest cost.
