Study of the effect of process parameters on the thermophilic anaerobic digestion of sewage sludge, evaluation of a thermal sludge pre-treatment and overall energetic assessment

The aim of this PhD Thesis was to study the impact of process parameters on the thermophilic anaerobic digestion of sewage sludge, to evaluate the effect of implementing a low temperature pre-treatment step, and to assess alternative processes from an energy perspective.
