Metal Contamination of Sludge by Water Supply Systems

by William E. Brown, Wright-Pierce Architects/Engineers, Technical Services, Topsham, ME, USA,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Environmental Engineering

Abstract:

The authors present a cursory review of the source of metals in sewage sludge and an analysis of limited sludge metal data and drinking water data that supports the hypothesis that a water supply system with a corrosive water supply is potentially a significant source of metals to sewage sludge.
