Abstract
Sludge disposal technology has been studied with many researchers since disposal of sewage sludge has been a social problem. The current technologies include incineration, carbonization, pyrolysis, landfilling and fertilization. However, all of these processes require a dry process, because sewage sludge with more than 80% high water content is difficult to be used as a raw material. This study has the purpose to establish the optimal operation conditions and the technology as changing the variables: kiln residence time, sludge load, dryer temperature, by using the previous study that is rotary kiln type dryer designed as a numerical simulation study. As the results, optimum conditions are determined as follows: kiln residence time, sludge load, dryer temperature are $62.5kg/m^3{\cdot}hr$, 26.2 min, $330^{\circ}C$, respectively. Content of water, drying efficiency, weight loss, volume loss show that the results are $10{\pm}2$, 88, 80, 60%, and the dried sludge is released by a dryer below 10 mm.
