Abstract:Sludge management is an integral process of an effluent treatment plant (ETP). This study aimed at using the electro-Fenton (EF) process for pretreatment of a cattle-based slaughterhouse ETP sludge to enhance biogas production from anaerobic digestion. EF-oxidation experiments were conducted in 0.5 L beakers with mild-steel electrodes, to study the effect of factors, viz., H2O2 concentration, current density and reaction time on soluble chemical oxygen demand (sCOD) concentration, soluble extracellular polymer… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
