Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The industrial waste known as excess activated sludge produced in Waste Water Treatment Plants (WWTPs) is a serious problem to this society. A method was introduced to reduce the excess sludge by cell lysis process of the activated sludge using ferrite particles. The cell lysis of the excess sludge was achieved and at the same time, microbial fuel cell was developed with the organic materials produced from the cell lysis. The electric power was small but there is a good possibility of using excess activated sludge in producing electric power.
