The increasing amount of sewage sludge produced in wastewater treatment plants
(WWTPs) poses a great challenge to both environment and economy globally. As a requisite …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) of sludge is a heterogeneous mixture of high to low
molecular weight organic substances which is including proteinaceous compounds …

Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) have a significant effect on the dewaterability of
waste-activated sludge (WAS); however, the role of polarity distribution (hydrophilic …

Tannic acid (TA), a phenolic compound, may be considered as a sludge conditioning agent
on account of its ability to precipitate protein. In this study, the effectiveness of TA …

The high moisture content of sludge is a key factor limiting its subsequent treatment and
disposal. Herein, a novel method of MnFe 2 O 4-biochar (MFB) activated peroxymonosulfate …

Fenton and Fenton-like sludge conditioning processes have been studied intensively due to
their superior efficiency in improving sludge dewaterability. But these processes inevitably …

In this study, Fe 2+ activated-PAA was developed as a novel technology to enhance sludge
dewatering. The result showed that the filterability (CST 0/CST) enhanced by 4.20±0.14 …

High levels of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and bound water in sludge
negatively impact sludge dewaterability. This study applied a novel sludge conditioning …

Coagulation and advanced oxidation process (AOP) are the two most significant
conditioning methods in sludge dewatering. However, previous studies mainly focus on their …

Zero-valent iron (ZVI) combined with oxidants is a promising conditioning strategy for
improving sewage sludge dewaterability. However, challenges, such as a low dewatering …
