Rheological characteristics of sludge represent one of the few examples of fundamentally derivable properties that have also been successfully used for the improvement of actual sludge treatment processes. Previous research has suggested the use of certain sludge rheological parameters for polymer dose optimization and floc characterization. This research evaluated the use of rheological properties for characterization and control of sludge conditioning with polyelectrolytes. Rheological characteristics were compared with dewaterability in laboratory evaluations, utilizing both synthetic cellulose suspension and actual sludge. These experiments were designed to identify fundamental rheological parameters that may have the potential to be used for assessment and control of conditioning and dewatering processes. This paper reports and analyzes results from controlled laboratory experiments; evaluations of on-line rheology measurements for process control in a nearby sludge handing facility have been present...
