Abstract

AbstractThis research was carried out to evaluate the effects of different dosages (1.85–4.44 g kg−1 Ts−1) of three cationic polyelectrolytes with charge densities (CD) of 20%, 40%, and 60% on the dewatering properties of an aerobically digested sludge. The sludge was collected from the sludge processing line in a wastewater treatment plant in the city of Mashhad, Iran (MWWTP). To assess the sludge dewatering properties, parameters such as specific resistance to filtration, sludge cluster geometry, filtration rate, and filtrate turbidity and volume were measured. The experimental results were then compared with the effects of a reference polyelectrolyte that was used in the conditioning of the sludge in that treatment plant. The results indicated that the sludge samples treated with the polyelectrolyte of the highest CD matched better dewatering performance than the samples conditioned with the other two polyelectrolytes. This polyelectrolyte (60%CD) presented its best effects at the dosage of 4.07 g kg−1 Ts−1. With this dosage, its performance was similar to the performance of the reference polyelectrolyte at the dosage of 4.44 g kg−1 Ts−1.
