ABSTRACT:
A method to remove pathogens from dewatered sludge and to reduce vector attraction that includes the steps of raising the pH 12 of the sludge above 12, subjecting the sludge to low ambient (near zero) pressure and/or elevating the shear pressure on the sludge after the sludge has been treated with a bulking agent to increase stiffness. Exposure to a vacuum enhances pathogen destruction and helps remove odiferous gases for vector control.
