Introduction
The purpose of this Technical Specification is to outline the management of sludges both upstream and
downstream of the treatment process to ensure that it is suitable for the outlets available. Sludge is the
inevitable residue of treating raw potable water and municipal and industrial wastewaters. This Technical
Specification refers to all types of sludge covered by CEN/TC 308 including sludges from treating industrial
wastewater similar to urban wastewater and from water supply treatment work plants. In considering the likely
quality of sludges, it should be remembered that municipal wastewater sludges are composed of materials
that have already been disposed of and are consequently likely to be more variable than many industrial
sludges that arise from sourced materials or water treatment sludges arising from surface water or
groundwater.
The quality of the sludge should match the requirements of the outlets whether that be to land, thermal
processing or as a last resort landfill. As a general rule a high quality sludge is likely to be acceptable to a
large range of outlets giving greater operational flexibility. High quality sludges are likely to be suitable for
those outlets associated with maximum sustainability and minimum environmental pollution. The management
of sludges will become increasingly more complex as environmental standards become more stringent and if
outlets become more constrained by legislation and public attitudes.
Sludge quality is central to the development of good practice for sludge production in relation to its destination
(use or disposal). Sludge quality depends on the composition of the upstream materials and the type of
treatment including post treatment storage.
Sludge quality can be characterised by its different properties; biological, chemical and physical:
a) biological properties include the microbiological stability of the organic matter in the sludge, odour and
hygienic characteristics;
b) chemical properties include:
1) content of potentially toxic substances (PTSs) which include inorganic (metals, metalloids, and other
minerals), and organic pollutants;
2) concentrations and form (availability) of plant nutrients and the main components of the sludge;
c) physical properties include whether liquid, semi-solid (pasty-like) or solid, and aesthetic factors
associated for instance with removal of unsightly debris by effective screening. Calorific value is a quality
criterion if the sludge is to be incinerated or used as a fuel. Other physical properties include,
thickenability and dewaterability.
The consistency of these different properties is a critical aspect of the sludge quality and of the ability to
determine its end destination (use or disposal).
