Abstract

Waste water treatment with high solid anaerobic digestion (HSAD) process B. Bieda*, W. Wajs*, E. Wnuk^ ' University of Mining and Metallurgy, Management Department, Krakow, Poland ^University of Mining and Metallurgy, Institute of Automatics, Krakow, Poland * International Environmental Systems &Supplies Inc., Forest Hills, New York, USA Abstract Water contamination caused by effluents of untreated or partially-purified industrial or household waste and waste water poses - even in developing countries - an increasing threat to the health of the population and endangers vitally necessary water and soil resources. There are over 400 municipal wastewater treatment facilities in the USA that use anaerobic digesters to treat [1], The full potential of High-SolidsAnaerobic Digestion (HSAD) technology in terms of economic benefits (cost reductions), ecology (protection of water, soil and climate) and social factors (health, availability of drinking water) has so far not been properly e
