Insight into effects of electro-dewatering pretreatment on nitrous oxide emission involved in related functional genes in sewage sludge composting.
Bioresource Technology 2018 October
Electro-dewatering (ED) pretreatment could improve sludge dewatering performance and remove heavy metal, but the effect of ED pretreatment on nitrous oxide (N2 O) emission and related functional genes in sludge composting process is still unknown, which was firstly investigated in this study. The results revealed that ED pretreatment changed the physicochemical characteristics of sludge and impacted N2 O related functional genes, resulting in the reduction of cumulative N2 O emission by 77.04% during 60 days composting. The higher pH and NH4 + -N, but lower moisture, ORP and NO2 - -N emerged in the composting of ED sludge compared to mechanical dewatering (MD) sludge. Furthermore, ED pretreatment reduced amoA, hao, narG, nirK and nosZ in ED sludge on Day-10 and Day-60 of composting. It was found that nirK reduction was the major factor impacting N2 O generation in the initial composting of ED sludge, and the decline of amoA restricted N2 O production in the curing period.
