Assessment of nutrient and heavy metal contents in a sewage sludge treatment plant through hydrothermal carbonization

This study investigates the fertilizer potential of sewage sludge from a sewage treatment plant through hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) by assessing the nutrient and heavy metal contents. HTC was conducted at 190 °C, 210 °C and 230 °C at a constant retention time of 10 min maintaining a solid-to-wa...
