Valorisation, recyclage, traitement et élimination des boues — Mode opératoire de conditionnement chimique en laboratoire

This method gives a standardized procedure for the conditioning operation when selecting a conditioning product at laboratory scale and also for the production of flocculated thickened sludge for subsequent dewatering tests.

This document provides a method for laboratory chemical conditioning of sludge.

The method applies to sludges and suspensions from:

—    

storm water handling;

—    

urban wastewater collecting systems;

—    

urban wastewater treatment plants;

—    

industrial wastewater that has been treated similarly to urban wastewater;

—    

water supply plants.

This document is applicable to all sludge that can have similar environmental or health impacts, or both, with exclusion of hazardous sludge from industry and dredged sludge.
