Fig. 6: Improving sludge dewatering with fibrous agents.

From: Fibrous super-bridging agents simultaneously improve contaminants removal and sludge dewatering via a very compact three-in-one process

a Impact of fibers and treatment conditions on the sludge solid content (%) without pressing (grey) vs with pressing (green). b Pressed sludge after the fibrous aggregation treatment (left) and microscope image of the 200 µm screen mesh (right). c Schematic diagram showing the compression of the fibers-based. DRC B raw water conditions: 589 NTU, pH 7.0, temperature of 21 °C. Error bars correspond to the standard deviation calculated from triplicate experiments (a).
