Optimizing the Hydrothermal Carbonization of Sewage Sludge—Response Surface Methodology and the Effect of Volatile Solids

This study focuses on identifying the optimum conditions of sewage sludge hydrothermal carbonization by Box–Behnken Design and on the effects of volatile solids on heating value and on process water load. To get insight into the solid and process water characteristics, we applied the Box–Behnken Des...
