Abstract

The activity of sewage treatment plants for the treatment of domestic wastewater is not limited only to wastewater treatment. The main problem in this activity is the treatment and disposal of the resulting sediments at sewage treatment plants, where the main task is to reduce the volume of sediment and then transform it into a useful product that does not cause environmental pollution. Currently, representatives of landfills refuse to accept this type of precipitation, explaining that this type of precipitation does not belong to the category of solid municipal waste. The issue of using sediments from sewage treatment plants as raw materials for manufacturing remains open, but in our opinion this type of sediment can be recycled in wastewater treatment technology. The practical value lies in conducting industrial tests of the converter of sewage sludge into liquid effluents, including all waste generated during the operation of sewage treatment plants with subsequent post-treatment of liquid effluents at wastewater treatment plants. These tests will reduce the amount of sediment by up to 90%, which will minimize the intensive accumulation of precipitation from sewage treatment plants and improve the state of the environment.
