In view of the well recognized need of reject water treatment in MWWTP (municipal wastewater treatment plant), this paper outlines two strategies for P removal from reject water using alum sludge, which is produced as ...
This study investigated an important issue of aluminium (Al) release in a novel reuse of Al-based water treatment sludge (Al-WTS) in constructed wetland system (CWs) as alternative substrate for wastewater treatment. Al-WTS ...
The generation of alum sludge from drinking water purification process remains inevitable when aluminium sulphate is used as primary coagulant for raw water coagulation. Sustainable managing such the sludge becomes an ...
Drinking-water treatment sludge (DWTS) produced at water treatment plants is an inescapable by-product and has long been treated as a waste for landfill. In this study, a series of batch adsorption tests were conducted ...
This study assessed the potential reuse of an aluminium coagulated drinking–water treatment sludge (Al–DWTS) as a main substrate in constructed wetland to replace soil for the treatment of P-enriched wastewater. The ...
Conditioning of an alum-based water treatment sludge by single and dual polymers was investigated in this study. Capillary suction time (CST), specific resistance to filtration (SRF) and settling rate of conditioned sludge ...
This study examined a novel reuse of the alum sludge, an inescapable by-product of the production of drinking water when aluminium salt is added as a coagulant, as the main medium in a laboratory-scale multi-stage constructed ...
This paper is a research brief highlighting the development of a novel alum sludge based constructed wetland system, aimed at reducing the pollution effects of agricultural run-offs. Alum sludge is a by-product of drinking ...
The adsorption equilibrium of a wide range of phosphorus species by an aluminium-based water treatment sludge (Al-WTS) was examined in this study. Four kinds of adsorption-isotherm models, namely Langmuir, Freundlich, ...
Till date, virtually all known drinking water processing systems generate an enormous amount of residual sludge, and what else to do with this rapidly increasing 'waste' stream in an economic and environmentally sustainable ...
