Value-Added Products Derived from Waste Activated Sludge: A Biorefinery Perspective

Abstract: Substantial research has been carried out on sustainable waste activated sludge (WAS) management in the last decade. In addition to the traditional approach to reduce its production volume, considering WAS as a feedstock to produce bio-products such as amino acids, proteins, short chain fatty acids, enzymes, bio-pesticides, bio-plastics, bio-flocculants and bio-surfactants represents a key component in the transformation of wastewater treatment plants into biorefineries. The quality of these bio-products is a … Show more

“…• Keseimbangan aliran dan komposisi, syarat utama untuk pelaksanaan proses biologi lanjutan secara efisien karena pembuangan air limbah sangat bervariasi berkaitan dengan volume, kekuatan, suhu, pH, dan tingkat gizi. [24]. Lumpur pengolahan susu jarang mengandung bakteri patogen yang sama seperti lumpur domestik [24] dan memiliki konsentrasi logam berat yang jauh lebih rendah dari lumpur domestik [26].…”

“…Bioplastics do have the challenges of the primary feedstocks, water footprint, land use, and limited infrastructure. However, the utilization of by-products and waste flows as raw materials by integrating production in a biorefinery would drastically reduce the ecological footprint [67,[96][97][98][99]. Recent studies have shown that wood and other lignocellulosic residues from agroforestry would be more sustainable alternatives due to their polysaccharides and lignin [95,100].…”

“…Generally, sludges contain water, organic and mineral substances, and various microbial strains. Interestingly, sludges can be used in various fileds (as fertilizer in agriculture, to produce bricks for buildings, as growth media for industrial microbial growth, etc) (Ben Rebah et al 2001, Zhang et al 2018). In sludge, microorganisms produce extracellular polymeric substances and as reported above, these polymers consist mainly of polysaccharides, proteins and nucleic acids.…”
