Biotreatment of Oily Sludge and Sediments. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, June 2009, Pages: 84
During processing, transportation and storage of oil,
sludge and sediments are generated. Sludge is
obtained from oily wastewater treatment processes,
sediments can be found in water bodies where liquid
oils have been disposed of. As a common feature, they
both are highly concentrated by a mixture of various
contaminants, and have high water content.
Mishandling of oily waste has imposed a strong demand
for technological solutions. This book focuses on
physical and chemical processes for the treatment of
oily sludge in a biopile; attempting to optimize the
technology by 3D visualization. Aerobic solid-phase
degradation of oily sludge appears to be technically
more similar to composting of sewage sludge than
remediation of oil-contaminated soil. Therefore, a
new concept is needed to evaluate the role of
degradation of natural organic amendment material in
compost mixtures. The work helps to fill in gaps in
utilizing aerobic biopile technology in remediation
of sludge, sediments, soils, or biowaste. This book
is for professionals in oil industry, waste
management and soil remediation engineers,
environmental authorities, or people fighting with
industrial pollution.
