Energy and Resource Recovery from Municipal Wastewater and Biosolids: A Circular Economy Framework covers the latest technological advancements and innovative processes for energy and resource recovery from municipal wastewater and biosolids. Focusing on multi-functional approaches for bioenergy production, wastewater reclamation, and resource recovery, the book presents sustainable practices to reduce carbon emissions in the waste industry within a circular economy framework. It begins with an overview of current status, challenges, and future directions of municipal wastewater treatment and biosolids management. Subsequent chapters explore direct energy recovery, ammonium and phosphorus recovery, biopolymers recovery, and enhanced fermentation and anaerobic digestion of waste sludge.
The book also covers co-digestion of waste sludge and food waste, thermal-chemical treatment, microbial lipid production, and electric energy production from biosolids in microbial fuel cells. Integrated engineering approaches for biosolids management towards zero-solid disposal and the future of circular economy-driven wastewater and biosolids valorization are also discussed in detail.
