Estimating the Energy Content of Wastewater Using Combustion Calorimetry and Different Drying Processes

The energy content of wastewater is routinely assessed by chemical oxygen demand (COD) measurements that only provide an incomplete picture and the data fundament of other energy parameters remains scarce. The volumetric heat of combustion (ΔCH) of raw wastewater from a municipal wastewater treatmen...
