Some Effects of Anaerobic Digestion on Sewage Sludge
That anaerobic digestion of sewage sludge effects a marked reduction in the biochemical oxygen demand (B.0.D.) and coliform group density thereof, as well as a radical change in sludge characteristics, is well known. The extent of these phenomena, however, does not appear to have been very well explored, and factual data relating thereto have been gleaned from research leading toward other objectives.This paper relates the results of an investigation aimed at discovering the numerical value of some of the changes occurring in digesting sewage sludge. The work was inspired by experience in the disposal of digested sewage sludge from temporary military establishments during World War II, and by public health regulations in some states to the effect that digested sewage sludge may not be discharged into state waters, fresh or salt.
