The 1993 regulation (Part 503 Rule) governing the land application of biosolids was established to protect public health and the environment from reasonably anticipated adverse effects. Included in the regulation are chemical pollutant limits, operational standards designed to reduce pathogens and the attraction of disease vectors, and management practices. This report from the Board on Environmental Studies and Toxicology evaluates the technical methods and approaches used by EPA to establish those standards and practices, focusing specifically on human health protection. The report examines improvements in risk-assessment practices and advances in the scientific database since promulgation of the regulation, and makes recommendations for addressing public health concerns, uncertainties, and data gaps about the technical basis of the biosolids standards.

This is a collection of methods of practical design, calculation and numerical examples that illustrate how organized, analytical reasoning can lead to the discovery of clear, direct solutions to pollution especially in the areas of biosolids management, treatment, disposal and beneficial use. The book contains an extensive collection of detailed design examples and case histories, and a distinguished panel of authors provides insight into a range of topics.

FROM THE INTRODUCTION The purpose of this text is to address one small but important and significant aspect (or process) of making man-made waste disposal more earth-friendly: biosolids composting. Since 1970, much progress has been made in sewage treatment technology. Corrective actions in treating domestic and industrial wastes have advanced to the point and have been underway for a long enough period now so that today one can visit most local lakes and streams and clearly see the lake or river bottom near a shallow shoreline. This, of course, is an example of an environmental improvement that can be readily seen. This visible improvement is also a "predictor" of what the future can hold for present and future generations who respect lakes and streams, and thus the environment. Recent improvements in the water quality of streams and lakes are only a small part of the progress that has been made. Improvements in wastewater technology have also worked to improve the quality of water we use; that is, the water we drink. This last statement may seem strange to some readers. How does wastewater treatment improve the quality of potable water when we do not receive our drinking water from wastewater treatment plant effluent? Effluent from wastewater treatment plants in not normally cross-connected with their municipality's drinking water supply. Many communities draw water from streams and rivers for use in domestic potable water supplies and these same streams and rivers serve as outfalls, normally upstream, for wastewater treatment plant effluent. Communities are growing. Populations within these burgeoning communities are also growing. Along with growth in community size and in population is a corresponding growth in the need for more potable water. Thus, the stream or river that provides the water supply and serves as the outfall for wastewater treatment plant effluent is put under increasing demand for its main product: potable water. Wastewater Biosolids to Compost covers EPA 503 regulations, testing procedures, advancements in odor control, marketing the product, and composting program economics.

The aim of Biosolids Treatment Processes, is to cover entire environmental fields. These include air and noise pollution control, solid waste processing and resource recovery, physicochemical treatment processes, biological treatment processes, biosolids management, water resources, natural control processes, radioactive waste disposal and thermal pollution control. It also aims to employ a multimedia approach to environmental pollution control.

Excreta and wastewater sludge are resources. Finding ways to put them to their best uses is part of developing sustainable human communities. But if not managed properly, excreta and sludge can be dangerous to human health and the environment. How to integrate theses opposing concepts is an ongoing worldwide challenge. This Atlas provides examples of how this challenge is addressed around the globe. The 59 reports provide insights into the similarities and differences in the management of excreta, wastewater, and biosolids in 37 countries. This compilation of information includes specific information from 19% of the member states of the United Nations, and includes representation of diverse countries and the full spectrum of management programs.

FROM THE PREFACE The processes used to remove water from biosolids and change their form from a liquid to a damp solid are critical to the operation of other downstream processes in wastewater treatment. An ideal dewatering operation would capture all of the biosolids solids at minimum cost and the resultant dry biosolids solids or cake would be capable of being handled without causing unnecessary problems. Process reliability, ease of operation, and compatibility with the treatment plant environment are also optimum. This text is designed to provide a detailed look at several dewatering options. It must be pointed out, however, that this text takes a strong, biased view toward centrifugation as the dewatering process that is most reliable, maintenance free, cost effective, and capable of producing the highest quality end-product when compared to the other options in a holistic manner. Therefore, the underlying theme of this text is wrapped around the premise that it is better to centrifuge it! Having said this, it must also be pointed out that all major biosolids dewatering processes are discussed in this text, in detail. Several examples of actual operating systems are presented, and preventive maintenance and cost considerations are presented and discussed. In recent years there has been a tendency in some technical texts like this one to focus on the theoretical and laboratory analyses of dewatering operations. While such research and documented findings can lead to improved understanding of the scientific and engineering concepts associated with dewatering biosolids, this text is presented in such a fashion so as to be user-friendly. It is an operator's text that can also afford the decision-maker the opportunity to make informed choices about selecting a dewatering system for his/her plant use. Dewatering Biosolids will be of interest to people in all aspects of wastewater plant operation. Useful as a handbook for operators, this plain language text is also of importance to anyone considering altering or adapting their wastewater operating system.
