Abstract

In present study the possible management of waste activated tannery sludge through their simultaneous digestion with cow dung has been investigated. The anaerobic co-digestion of activated sludge can be helpful for recovery of energy and high quality of bio-solid product that can be used as soil conditioner. The accumulative biogas production of tannery sludge and cow dung (TSCD-2) in an ratio of 30:70, TSCD-3 in an ratio of 70:30 and tannery sludge (TS-4, 100 %) were measured as 208, 481 and 70 mL, respectively at temperature ranging from 25-37 °C. The waste activated tannery sludge can be used for biogas production with the help of co-digestion by utilizing suitable co-substrate that improve the digestibility as concluded in the results of TSCD-2 and TSCD-3 samples.
