Abstract

Nowadays, with the constant development of wastewater treatment processes, more and more waste activated sludge has been produced which cannot be overlooked. To solve this problem, some strategies have been employed in-situ to reduce waste activated sludge production and proved effective. This paper reviews mechanisms and applications of the in-situ excess sludge reduction strategies. It is expected that this paper could attract widely attention on sludge reduction and inspire researchers and engineers to develop feasible and effective measures to control sludge production in an acceptable range.
