Title: IMPROVING ANAEROBIC DIGESTER EFFICIENCY BY HOMOGENIZATION OF WASTE ACTIVATED SLUDGE
Abstract: IMPROVING ANAEROBIC DIGESTER EFFICIENCY BY HOMOGENIZATION OF WASTE ACTIVATED SLUDGEMicroSludge™ is a patented chemical and pressure pre-treatment process that increases both the rate and extent that waste activated sludge (WAS) is degraded in a conventional mesophilic anaerobic digester. The process uses alkaline pre-treatment to weaken cell membranes and an industrial-scale homogenizer to provide an enormous and sudden pressure change to burst the cells. The resulting...Author(s)Barry RabinowitzRob StephensonSourceProceedings of the Water Environment FederationSubjectSession 34: Residuals & Biosolids Management: Anaerobic Digestion PretreatmentDocument typeConference PaperPublisherWater Environment FederationPrint publication date Jan, 2005ISSN1938-6478SICI1938-6478(20050101)2005:13L.2752;1-DOI10.2175/193864705783865578Volume / Issue2005 / 13Content sourceWEFTECFirst / last page(s)2752 - 2771Copyright2005Word count654
