Overview of pretreatment strategies for enhancing sewage sludge disintegration and subsequent anaerobic digestion: Current advances, full-scale application and future perspectives
TL;DR: In this article, an up-to-date review of recent research achievements in the pretreatment technologies used for improving biogas production including mechanical (ultrasonic, microwave, electrokinetic and high-pressure homogenization), thermal, chemical (acidic, alkali, ozonation, Fenton and Fe(II)-activated persulfate oxidation), and biological options (temperature-phased anaerobic digestion and microbial electrolysis cell).

Lori Lishman,Shirley Anne Smyth,Kurtis Sarafin,Sonya Kleywegt,John Toito,Thomas E. Peart,Bill Lee,Mark R. Servos,Michel Béland,Peter Seto +9 more
TL;DR: A Canadian database for the presence of selected acidic drugs, triclosan, polycyclic musks, and selected estrogens in MWWTP influent and effluent is established and preliminary data suggests that temperature does not play a strong role in the reduction of these compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effluent Organic Matter (EfOM) in Wastewater: Constituents, Effects, and Treatment
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the components of organic matter present in WWTP effluents and various treatment methods that may be employed for reduction of EfOM, including flocculation, adsorption, biofiltration, ion exchange, advanced oxidation process, and membrane technology.
