Prediction of Struvite Formation Potential in EBPR Digested Sludges

Abstract

Prediction of Struvite Formation Potential in EBPR Digested SludgesLow operating costs and less sludge generation associated with EBPR (Enhanced Biological Phosphorus Removal) have led existing wastewater treatment plants to retrofit their phosphorus removal systems and have encouraged new plants to incorporate EBPR into their design. However, in plants that use anaerobic digestion, the introduction of EBPR may result in the formation of scales of the mineral...Author(s)Jacimaria R.
