A large number of sludge does not obtain standardized processing,which directly causes"secondary pollution"and seriously threatens eco-environment. Therefore,how to rationally treat municipal sludge is one of problems that need urgent solution at present. In this paper,current mainstream pretreatment technique of municipal sludge and backend disposal technique are explored,and mainstream backend disposal technique is introduced. Moreover,key problems in municipal sludge disposal field are analyzed,which has certain reference significance for further understanding the current development of municipal sludge disposal field in China.展开更多

The recycle of these wastes can not only protect the environment but also permit their reutilization. In this research, a new process of "hydrometallurgical treatment + hydrothermal synthesis" was investigated for the combined recovery of iron and organic materials from oily CRM sludge. Hydrometallurgical treatment, mainly including acid leaching, centrifugal separation, neutralization reaction, oxidizing, and preparation of hydrothermal reaction precursor, was first utilized for processing the sludge. Then, micaceous iron oxide (MIO) pigment powders were prepared through hydrothermal reaction of the obtained precursor in alkaline media. The separated organic materials can be used for fuel or chemical feedstock. The quality of the prepared MIO pigments is in accordance with the standards of MIO pigments for paints (ISO 10601-2007). This clean, effective, and economical technology offers a new way to recycle oily CRM sludge.展开更多

It was found that: biodegradability of dyestuffs would decrease with the increase of the concentration of NaCl; however, biodegradability in the condition of NaCl = 30 g/L was better than that in the condition of NaCl = 15 g/L; in the three NaCl conditions, biodegradability of tested dyestuffs followed the following order: NaCl = 0 g/L>NaCl = 30 g/L>NaCl = 15 g/L.展开更多
