Sludge is a mixture of solids and liquids, containing
mostly Excreta and water, in combination with sand,
grit, metals, trash and/or various chemical compounds.
A distinction can be made between faecal Sludge and
wastewater Sludge. Faecal Sludge comes from onsite
sanitation technologies, i.e., it has not been transported
through a sewer. It can be raw or partially digested, a
slurry or semisolid, and results from the Collection and
Storage/Treatment of Excreta or Blackwater, with or
without Greywater. For a more detailed characterization
of faecal Sludge refer to Strande et al., 2014 (see Sector
Development Tools, p. 9). Wastewater Sludge (also
referred to as sewage Sludge) is Sludge that originates
from sewer-based wastewater collection and (Semi-)
Centralized Treatment processes.
The Sludge composition will determine the type of treatment
that is required and the end-use possibilities.
