Characterization Changes of Heavy Metals Contents and Fractions in Sewage Sludge from Sirt Wastewater Treatment Plant, Libya
Abstract:ONITORING changes of the main chemical properties of sewage sludge from Sirt Wastewater Treatment Plant, Libya was investigated. Ten random sewage sludge samples were monthly collected for a time span of one year. Average year values of TDS, pH, organic matter and C/N recorded 1428.91 mg kg -1 , 6.90, 76.3% and 7.97, respectively. Total N, P and K contents were in the normal range (5.63, 1.41 and0.019%, respectively). The total concentrations of Fe, Zn and Mn recorded high levels (2768, 1142 and 169 mg kg -1 ,… Show more
