Natural gas is a source of energy that comes from the earth which is depleting every day, an alternative source of energy is needed and one of the sources comes from biogas. There is an abundance of empty fruit bunch (EFB) that comes from palm oil plantation that can become a substrate for biogas production. A methodology of fermentation based on Verein Deutscher Ingenieure was used to utilize EFB as a substrate to produce biogas using biogas sludge and wastewater sludge as inoculum in wet fermentation process under mesophilic condition. Another optimization was done by adding a different water ratio to the inoculum mixture. In 20 days, an average of 6gr from 150gr of total EFB used in each sample was consumed by the microbes. The best result from 20 days of experiment with both biogas sludge and wastewater sludge as inoculum were the one added with 150gr of water that produced 2910ml and 2185ml of gas respectively. The highest CH 4 produced achieved from biogas sludge and wastewater sludge with an addition of 150gr of water to the inoculum were 27% and 22% CH 4 respectively. This shows that biogas sludge is better in term of volume of gas that is produced and CH percentage.

Организации водопроводно-канализационного хозяйства в рамках технологических процессов водоотведения должны обеспечивать дезинвазию очищенных сточных вод и осадков, образующихся в результате их очистки. В соответствии с пунктом 1.2 СанПиН 3.2.3215-14 Профилактика паразитарных болезней на территории РФ , санитарные правила устанавливают требования к комплексу организационных, санитарно-противоэпидемических (профилактических) мероприятий, проведение которых направлено на предупреждение возникновения и распространения паразитарных заболеваний. Проведена оценка нормативных документов по дезинвазии объектов окружающей среды, а также решений по судебным делам в части ее проведения. Выявлены разногласия в документах по проведению дезинвазии, в связи с чем направлены обращения в различные организации с предложением гармонизировать правила с целью исключения разночтений. Изучены индустриальные методы дезинвазии осадка сточных вод. Показано, что происходит необоснованное навязывание препарата Бингсти .Within the frames of the wastewater disposal processes water and wastewater utilities shall provide for the disinvasion of effluents and wastewater sludge generated in the process of wastewater treatment. In accordance with paragraph 1.2 of SanPiN 3.2.3215-14 Prevention of parasitic diseases in the territory of the Russian Federation , the sanitary rules set out the requirements for a comprehensive set of organizational, sanitary and anti-epidemic (preventive) measures, that are aimed at preventing the occurrence and spread of parasitic diseases. The assessment of regulatory documents on the disinvasion of environmental objects, as well as judicial decisions regarding its implementation, was carried out. Controversies were revealed in the regulatory documents, and appeals were sent to various organizations with a proposal to harmonize the rules in order to exclude discrepancies. Industrial methods for disinvasion of wastewater sludge were studied. It is shown that there is an unreasonable aggressive selling of Bingsti ineffective product.

In the context of landfilling dewatered wastewater sludge in Hong Kong, with landfills up to 140 m high, one of the most significant properties of sludge is its physical nature with regard to moisture characteristics and associated geotechnical stability. Commonly, lower limits are set on total solids content, but no geotechnical stability criteria are applied with the exception of Germany where a minimum requirement for vane shear strength is set at 25 kN/m2. The purpose of this study was to determine and evaluate dewatered wastewater sludge from three Hong Kong municipal wastewater treatment plants with regard to the following physical and geotechnical properties: (i) vane shear strength; (ii) consolidation characteristics such as compression index, compressibility factor, coefficient of consolidation and compressibility coefficient; and (iii) hydraulic characteristics such as permeability and intrinsic resistance. Although dewatered sludge exhibits quite different characteristics as compared to soils, predictive logarithmic relationships may be established between various properties which are consistent with the critical state model for soils, conventional filtration and consolidation theory. Such representation provides a valuable basis for understanding the sludge characteristics and behaviour to landfill design.

The amount of waste activated sludge (WAS) is increasing annually, and since it presents potential environmental and health-related risks, an appropriate treatment and stabilization process is needed. It has been shown in numerous studies in the past few decades that amongst the advanced treatment methods of sludge, microwave and ultrasound-based processes offer promising and effective alternatives. The main advantage of these physical methods is that they are energy-efficient, easy to implement and can be combined with other types of treatment procedures without major difficulties. In this review article we would like to present the recent scientific results of the microwave, ultrasound and combined (microwave-alkaline, microwave-H2O2, ultrasound-alkaline and ultrasound-H2O2) treatment of wastewater sludge, in terms of different process-efficiency indicators. Although the obtained results somewhat vary between the different scientific papers, it can be undoubtedly stated that both MW and US—either individually or in combination with chemical treatments—can enhance several aspects of sludge processing, like increasing the SCOD/TCOD rate, disintegration degree (DD), or the anaerobic digestibility (AD), but the extent of these increments clearly depends on the treatment conditions or parameters.
