• Resumen

  • Environmental pollution related to odour emission has become in the last years an important public concern. Closeness of odour-causing facilities such as waste water treatment plants (WWTPs) to urban areas further aggravates the problem. Volatile sulphur compounds (VSC) are one of the main groups of odour causing compounds in WWTPs, especially in the sludge processing. Nowadays, there are a variety of options available for the effective treatment of odorous sulphur compounds emission. This thesis has focused on the minimisation during sewage sludge conditioning process and the abatement of these compounds by treatments such as advanced oxidation processes and adsorption at the end-of-pipe
