Effect of Aeration Rate on Forced-Aeration Composting of Sewage Sludge and Maize Straw

Abstract:

The composting of sewage sludge and maize straw was investigated in forced-aeration composting systems at aeration rates of 0.28, 0.56 and 0.83 l min^-1 kg^-1 organic matter, corresponding to pile A, pile B and pile C. The composting temperature in three piles met the hygienic safety criterion, and final electrical conductivity did not exceed the limit value of 3000 μS cm^-1. The final NH₄⁺-N content in pile C exceeded the limit value of 400 mg kg^-1. The final NO₃^--N content, cation exchange capacity and germination index in pile B were superior to those in pile A and pile C.
