Book Pathogen Risk Assessment for Land Application of Municipal Sludge

Download or read book Pathogen Risk Assessment for Land Application of Municipal Sludge written by and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 3 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document describes a methodology and associated computer model for assessing the risk to humans of pathogens in treated municipal sewage sludge applied to land. Land application of sludge in this methodology refers to the distribution of sludge on or just below the soild surface where it is employed as a fertilizer or soil conditioner for growing human food-chain and non-food-chain crops. The two categories of land application addressed in this model are (1) agricultural utilization and (2) distribution and marketing (D&M), and the source of microbial pathogens is (1) liquid or (2) dried or composted municipal sewage sludge.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title includes a number of Open Access chapters. This new book provides a multiperspective look at research into many elements of remediating environmental hazards connected to sewage and landfill leachate. Sewage and landfill leachate treatments include various processes that are used to manage and dispose of the liquid portions of solid wast

Book Development of Risk Assessment Methodology for Municipal Sludge Incineration

Download or read book Development of Risk Assessment Methodology for Municipal Sludge Incineration written by and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 2 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is one of a series of reports that present methodologies for assessing the potential risks to humans or other organisms from management practices for the disposal or reuse of municipal sewage sludge. The management practices addressed by this series include land application practices, distribution and marketing programs, landfilling, incineration and ocean disposal. In particular, these reports deal with methods for evaluating potential health and environmental risks from toxic chemicals that may be present in sludge. This document addresses risks from chemicals associated with sludge incineration practices. These proposed risk assessment procedures are designed as tools to assist in the development of regulations for sludge management practices. The procedures are structured to allow calculation of technical criteria for sludge disposal/reuse options based on the potential for adverse health or environmental impacts. The criteria may address management practices (such as site design or process control specifications), limits on sludge disposal rates or limits on toxic chemical concentrations in the sludge.

Book Microbiological Risk Assessment for Land Application of Municipal Sludge

Download or read book Microbiological Risk Assessment for Land Application of Municipal Sludge written by M. Baseheart and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each major option for the disposal/reuse of municipal sludges poses potential risks to human health or the environment because of the microbial contaminants in sludge. Therefore, risk assessment methodology appropriate for pathogen risk evaluation for land application and distribution and marketing (D&M) options was developed. A computer model was designed to aid in sludge management by comparing the risks of alternatives as sludge is applied to cropland and grazed pasture as a fertilizer and/or soil conditioner. The model integrates microbial dose-response information with the number of pathogens likely to be present in exposure pathways. Interpretations from risk assessment model outputs were made.
