Abstract:Resource recovery from waste-activated sludge is of great practical significance to achieve sustainable wastewater treatment. Alginate-like extracellular polymers (ALE), a typical class of extracellular polymer substances, are valuable bio-based products with broad application prospects. However, due to the low extraction efficiency of the current method, its practical applications are severely limited. In this study, sodium percarbonate (SPC) was first applied to enhance ALE extraction from conventional activ… Show more
