Numerical and CFD-Based Modelling of Concentrated Domestic Slurry in Turbulent Flow Through Circular Pipes

The concentration of domestic slurry has two advantages, it promotes resource recovery (nutrients and biomass) and saves water. But the design of a relevant sewerage requires a clear understanding of the frictional losses incurred during the transport of the slurry. This abstracts describes numerical & CFD-based methods to estimate losses...

Autogenerative high pressure digestion: Future potentials and constraints

Biogas generated in waste (water) treatment facilities is increasingly regarded as an important source of renewable energy. However, generally, the CH4 content in biogas ranges between 55-70%, depending waste(water) composition, and cannot be applied directly for high grade applications such as gas grid injection or vehicle fuel. Conventional...

Sludge residence time and membrane fouling: What is the connection?

Nowadays, waste activated sludge is more and more regarded as an energy source (through subsequent anaerobic digestion) or even as a potential source of fine chemicals (through subsequent fermentation processes). To this end, the organic content of the activated sludge should remain as high as possible implying short sludge residence times (SRT)...
