Enhanced technology for sewage sludge advanced dewatering from an engineering practice perspective: A review.
Abstrak
The increasing production of sludge poses significant environmental risks. Sludge disposal and transport are costly because of the high water content (WC). Reducing the WC of sludge is the most efficient strategy to decrease treatment costs. However, the sludge contains a large amount of hydrophilic organic matter, causing poor dewaterability. Therefore, research on preconditioning and mechanical dewatering has great significance for advanced sludge dewatering. In this study, the features of sludge, the advantages and disadvantages of preconditioning methods, and the action mechanisms (including physical, chemical, and biological preconditioning) are thoroughly described. In addition, the dewatering principle and engineering applications of mechanical dewatering techniques are introduced in this manuscript, especially the application of vacuum preloading as an in-situ dewatering technology in sludge. Finally, cost analysis of different conditioning and mechanical dewatering methods is conducted to explore their application feasibility. This manuscript provides new insights for engineering applications of preconditioning methods and mechanical dewatering technology.
