摘要:The article presents the efficient method of microwave irradiation (SHF) for the municipal liquid waste such as domestic wastewater and sludge. The technical and economic parameters and experimental data, showing the possibilities of microwave electromagnetic radiation using in the sewage and sediment treatment technologies, are given in this article. The traditional electrothermal treatment and SHF processing of the municipal precipitation, taken from the city wastewater treatment plant, have been compared. At the same time, a high rate of heating of the precipitation samples has been noted during the microwave treatment. The technical and economic comparison of three methods (with the usage of the reagents, convection heating and SHF) showed the advantages of using SHF range electromagnetic radiation. The energy efficiency and the cost-effective use of resources during the SHF using for liquid municipal waste treatment have been confirmed.
