Research aim – To evaluate the suitability of pyrolysis as a method of utilising sewage sludge as a fertiliser for arable crops
Objectives
– Determine the optimal operating conditions to pyrolyze sewage sludge with additional waste co-feeds
– Optimise reactor conditions to minimise heavy metal leachate through pH and pore distribution adjustment.
– Reduce PFAS content in biochar product removing it from the water system
