• Sommario/riassunto: Reap the benefits of sludgeThe processing of wastewater sludge for use or disposal has been a continuing challenge for municipal agencies. Yet, whensludge is properly processed, the resulting nutrient-rich product--biosolids--can be a valuable resource for agriculture and other uses. Wastewater Sludge Processing brings together a wide body of knowledge from the field to examine how to effectively process sludge to reap its benefits, yet protect public health.Presented in a format useful as both a reference for practicing environmental engineers and a textbook for graduatestuden
