1 Emerging Technologies in Sludge Minimization Overview for Municipal Wastewater Treatment Michigan Water Environment Association 84 th Annual Conference June 2009 Art K. Umble, Ph.D., P.E., BCEE
2 Outline The increasing challenges with biosolids disposal Opportunities for Sludge Reduction across the Wastewater Treatment System Overview of Minimization Techniques Chemical Mechanical Electrical Biological Thermal 2 mwea 2009
3 What to do with Biosolids? Conventional Alternatives Deposit on Land (agriculture or landfills) Deposit in the ocean No Longer Permitted Deposit in the air (incineration) Ash considered hazardous waste Europe Difficult to obtain permit USA Extremely expensive everywhere 3 mwea 2009
4 What to do with Biosolids? Currently, US produces about 7 million tons/yr; projected at 8.2 million tons by 2010 Land application costs are escalating Landfill availability is in decline Regulatory controls are increasing More research needed on beneficial reuse Public scrutiny over biosolids disposal is increasing (NIMBY) 4 mwea 2009
5 What to do with Biosolids? Conventional Activated Sludge Conventional Anaerobic Digestion CH 4 + CO 2 200,000 Population Equivalents 8,000 DT/yr Primary Sludge Waste Activated Sludge 60% 30% How can this volume be reduced? How can we optimize its beneficial resource? ~5,000 DT/yr for Disposal (3x if wet tons) 5 mwea 2009
