USE OF FLOTATION FOR SEPARATION AND THICKENING OF BALLASTED SLUDGE

A method of treating wastewater comprises performing biological treatment of the wastewater to generate a sludge, adding a ballasting agent to the sludge to form a ballasted sludge, and performing solid-liquid separation of a first portion of the ballasted sludge using a dissolved air flotation proc...
