Characterization of sludges - Good practice for sludges drying

This CEN Technical report describes good practices for sludge drying and it is one of a series on sludge management options. It gives guidance on
-   drying processes;
-   characteristics of dried sludge products;
-   recycling or disposal of dried sludge products.
from urban wastewater treatment plants.   
Sludges of other origin, like sludge from water supply or industrial treatment plants are not in the exact scope of this CEN Technical Report, however the handling of most of these sludges will comply to a large extent with the leads given in this CEN Technical Report.

Caractérisation des boues - Bonne pratique pour le séchage des boues

Le présent rapport technique CEN décrit des bonnes pratiques pour le séchage des boues et il fait partie d’une série concernant les options envisageables pour la gestion des boues. Il donne des conseils sur les points suivants :
   les procédés de séchage ;
   les caractéristiques des boues séchées ;
   le recyclage ou l’élimination des produits à base de boues séchées ;
provenant d’installations de traitement des eaux usées urbaines.
Les boues d’origine différente, telles que les boues qui proviennent des installations de traitement industriel ou des usines de production d’eau potable, ne font pas exactement partie du domaine d’application du présent rapport technique CEN. La manipulation de la plupart de ces boues se conforme cependant dans une large mesure aux suggestions proposées dans ce rapport technique CEN.
