Dewatering Municipal Wastewater Sludges : Design Manual

Covers dewatering processes for municipal wastewater sludges. The design engineer can use this document to aid in the selection of an appropriate dewatering process for a particular application. The manual considers the upgrading of existing dewatering processes, as well as the designing of new ones, and pays particular attention to the needs of small facilities. Proper sludge management requires the use of several sludge treatment and disposal processes. Selection of a dewatering process is guided by many factors, including the public¹s desires, the final disposal option selected, regulatory requirements, and the size of the facility.Smith, James E. is the author of 'Dewatering Municipal Wastewater Sludges : Design Manual', published 1999 under ISBN 9780788182518 and ISBN 078818251X.
