Activated sludges as animal feed: A review
AbstractIn this review, the possibility of using activated sludges as animal feed is discussed. After a brief description of the activated sludge process fundamentals, the chemical composition of the sludges is given (CHON, protein, amino-acid, carbohydrates, lipids, vitamins, etc.). Feeding experiments using activated sludges from various sources indicate the suitability of the sludge as a feed supplement. A following section deals with the modifications of the conventional activated sludge process for protein production from wastewater. The factors maximizing the nutritional value of the sludges are also discussed.A few problems associated with the use of some activated sludges as a feed supplement are mentioned but these problems can be solved on the basis of p present technology.
