Abstract: Already-treated sludge is fed back into incoming sewage, and is effective to supply nutrients needed for the microbiological breakdown of the sludge. The feedback sludge has a solids content of 10% or more, and has been sheared and heated to drive its viscosity down to 10,000 cP or less. In sludge done that way, nutrients are preserved and presented to the sewage to be treated in highly liquidised and solubilised form, whereby the nutrients are very bio-available to the microbes in the sewage. Large improvements in the elimination of biomass can result.

Abstract translation: 已经处理的污泥被回收进入污水，有效提供污泥微生物分解所需的营养物质。 反馈污泥的固体含量为10％以上，经过剪切加热，使其粘度降至10000cP以下。 在这样做的污泥中，营养物质被保存并提供给待处理的污水，并以高度液化和溶解的形式进行处理，从而营养物质对生物污水中的微生物非常有效。 可以大大改善生物质的消除。

Abstract: An anaerobic digestion process for the treatment of domestic wastewater sludge that requires less space and funding to construct. Sludge to be treated is combined with recycled anaerobic digester sludge to form a blended sludge. The recycled anaerobic digester sludge provides a source of microorganisms necessary to initiate the breakdown of organic matter in the sludge to be treated. The sludge is then concentrated to increase total solids content to about 10-20%. Excess liquid is removed from the concentrated sludge. The concentrated sludge is then digested in an anaerobic reactor system such as a plug-flow reactor. Some benefits of the system's reduced volume, as a result of concentration of the sludge, include elimination of the necessity of substantially continuous stirring and the new possibilities for the types of construction to be used for the reactor. In addition to the reduced cost of the process itself, the process creates biogas that can be used to offset energy requirements for the process.

Abstract translation: 用于处理生活污水污泥的厌氧消化过程，需要较少的空间和资金来构建。 待处理的污泥与循环的厌氧消化池污泥结合形成混合污泥。 循环的厌氧消化池污泥提供了一个微生物来源，以启动待处理污泥中有机物质的分解。 然后浓缩污泥以将总固体含量增加至约10-20％。 从浓缩污泥中除去过量的液体。 然后将浓缩的污泥在厌氧反应器系统例如活塞流反应器中消化。 由于污泥的浓缩，系统减小的体积的一些益处包括消除基本连续搅拌的必要性以及用于反应器的结构类型的新可能性。 除了过程本身的成本降低之外，该过程产生可用于抵消该过程的能量需求的生物气体。
