Efforts to manage persistent pollutants in water, soil, sediment and sludge
Abstract
Dry pyrolysis of sludge can remove PFAS from sludge if done correctly, as well as sequester carbon, produce energy and recycle phosphorous. An additional benefit is that it can produce a biochar with many uses, including as an effective sorbent. These results, mostly from the SLUDGEFFECT project, are presented alongside sewage and soil risk assessment models being developed in the ARAGORN research project.
