Dewatering is important for activated sludge disposal. The dewaterability of activated sludge was first deteriorated and then ameliorated when the temperature was raised from 100 to 200 degrees C with a threshold temPerature of 130 degrees C under hydrothermal treatment. Calcium chloride assisted hydrothermal treatment to improve the dewaterability of activated sludge, and eliminated the threshold temperature at as less as 20 mg/g dry solid (DS). An increase in temperature and dosage of CaCl2 till 60 mg/g DS allowed a continuous improvement of dewaterability. It is found that the charge neutralization resulted from biopolymers solubilization dominated the dewaterability evolution below 160 degrees C, while the decomposition of water-binding components played a more important role at higher temperatures. The variation of molecular weight of soluble protein and polysaccharides implies that CaCl2 interacted with the component of sludge and altered the constituent during the hydrothermal treatment. The integration of soluble biopolymers into the floc matrix by CaCl2 contributed to the compacted floc structure and thus improved the dewaterability. This work presents an insight into the floc variation in both the composition and structure associated with the dewaterability and offers a new understanding to the role of temperature and CaCl2 in hydrothermal treatment on activated sludge dewatering.
