Abstract:Operation of sludge treatment processes mainly relies on manual control, which is far from ideal. There is a need for new approaches to optimize the operation of sludge treatment processes and wastewater plants. This research aims to identify new tools and methods that can be used for inline and real-time characterization and monitoring of sludge. Two methods that were examined in this thesis that have potential to be used as monitoring technologies were ultraviolet/visible spectrophotometry and torque rheolog… Show more
