A — A Novel Hybrid Process Combining Bio-Sorption and Anaerobic Digestion to Approach Zero Energy Consumption and Reduce Sludge Prouction

This paper presents a novel process that hybrids contact stabilization and anaerobic digestion to create a novel process that can treat municipal wastewater while generating savings in energy as well as lowering the sludge yield. In this process, the aerobic sludge stabilization tank and anaerobic sludge digester are connected in parallel and part of the anaerobic digester sludge is recycled back...
