The major limitation of soil application of sewage sludge compost is the total heavy metal contents and their bioavailability and mobility. This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of mature compost as a bulking agent on reduction the mobility and bioavailability of Zn, Cu, Pb and Cr during the sewage sludge composting process. The three composting processes: sewage sludge(SS), sewage sludge...
The aim of the study was to determine the changes in the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) content during the forced-aeration composting of anaerobic digested sludge and sawdust. The content of 16 PAHs and some physical-chemical properties in composting products were monitored. Composting showed an efficient decrease of the content and the bioavailability of individual PAH. The total PAH content...
Soil with combined pollutants of phenanthrene (phe) and lead (Pb) or with either of them were composted in three laboratory reactors to study the degradation of phe and the reduction of the solubility and bioavailability of Pb during composting. The change of the residual ratio of phe, the transformation of Pb, and the parameters of composting including pH and volatile solids (VS) were investigated...
