Waste sludge disintegration, methanogenesis and final disposal via various pretreatments: Comparison of performance and effectiveness

This study compared the three wastewater pretreatments of ozonation, Fe2+-S2O82− and freeze-thawing (F/T) in the disintegration, anaerobic digestion (AD) and final disposal of the sludge. The F/T pretreatment increased the dewaterability and settleability of the sludge by 7.8% and 47.1%, respectivel...
