    This document discusses different processes for treating sewage sludge, including: 1. Conventional activated sludge processes and modified activated sludge processes that introduce oxygen for efficient aeration. 2. Aerated lagoons and sequencing batch reactors that carry out aeration and sedimentation sequentially in the same tank. 3. Aerobic digestion where organic sludge is subjected to aerobic digestion in special reactors called aerobic digesters. 4. Aerobic attached-growth processes that are commonly used to remove organic matter and facilitate nitrification.

    Introduction
    Sewage sludge treatment describes the processes used to manage
    and dispose of sewage sludge produced during sewage treatment.
    Sludge treatment is focused on reducing sludge weight and
    volume to reduce transportation and disposal costs, and on
    reducing potential health risks of disposal

    Treatment of sludge
    Conventional activated sludge process:
    In the normal treatment of sewage, the activated sludge is proceeded by primary sedimentation tank.
    The conventional activated sludge system consists of a separation tank, settling or sedimentation tank and sludge
    removal line
    The sewage after the primary treatment is introduced at the head of the tank. It is desirable to supply O2 uniformly
    throughout the tank.

    Modified activated sludge processes:


    For increasing the performance of the activated sludge system, several modifications have been done in the recent
    years. Most of them are directed to bring out efficient aeration. Aeration can be done by step aeration, tapered
    aeration, and high rate aeration by complete mixing and extended aeration.

    Treatment
    Aerated Lagoons:
    Aerated lagoons, also called as aerated ponds, are the facultative stabilization ponds wherein surface aerators are installed
    to overcome the bad adours (due to overload of organic materials). The microbiological treatment of aerated ponds is
    comparable to the activated sludge process. The major difference is the large surface area in aerated ponds and this is more
    susceptible for temperature effects. It is possible to carry out continuous nitrification in aerated lagoons. This however,
    depends on the design and operating conditions of the pond (particularly the temperature).

    Sequencing Batch Reactor:


    Sequencing batch reactor (SBR) is a modification of activated sludge treatment system. The processes namely aeration and
    sedimentation are carried out in both
    the systems. The major difference is that while in the conventional activated sludge system, aeration and sedimentation
    occur simultaneously in separate tanks, these two processes are carried out sequentially in the same tank in SBR. Thus, the
    sequencing batch reactor may be regarded as fill- and-draw activated sludge process.
    The operating sequence of a typical SBR is depicted in Fig. The process is carried out in a sequence of five steps — filling,
    aeration (reacting) sedimentation (settling), decanting and idle. Several modifications and improvements have been made in
    the SBR for more efficient operation.

    Treatment
    Aerobic Digestion:
    The organic sludge’s produced from various treatment processes (activated sludge
    treatment, trickling filter-sludge) are subjected to aerobic digestion in special reactors
    referred to as aerobic digesters.

    Aerobic Attached — Growth Treatment Processes:


    Aerobic attached-growth treatment processes are commonly used to remove the organic
    matter found in the sewage. These processes are also useful for the nitrification
    (conversion of ammonia to nitrate).
