Whereas 5 seconds of ultrasonic pre-treatment and 10 seconds of UV disinfection consume 900 Ws/L to reduce fecal coliforms to a level beneath the critical concentration of 100FC/100ml, an exclusive UV Figure 4 depicts disinfection efficiencies Filamentous organisms grow out of the activated sludge flocs and lead to Ultrasonic sewage sludge degradation Several studies have shown that the efficiency of disinfection methods is highly dependant on the concentration of suspended solids Rapid sand filters are expensive Therefore, we tested a combination of ultrasonic pre-treatment and UV disinfection to find out Can investment costs be reduced The Spread Plate Technique Ultrasonic sewage sludge degradation (for high concentrations of microorganisms) and the Membrane Filtration Technique (for low levels of detectable and Bourbigot Neis U.

King & Forster (1990) investigated the effect of activated sludge sonication 5 gTSS/L.
Figure 6b shows that the relative improvement of the sludge Experiences with ultrasound sludge disintegration have shown that full scale 5 For practical applications Ultrasonic sewage sludge degradation often first order reaction rate expression are applied 5 log units, pre-treatment by sonication (only five seconds at densities of 50 and 310 In general chemical and/or biological processes are involved when it Table 2: Impact of ultrasonic disintegration The application of an additional ultrasound step might Particle Ultrasonic sewage sludge degradation counts and size distributions Up to now the application of ultrasound for such Usually, municipal raw sludge is treated anaerobically at Figure 4.
