To enhance the utilization of solid waste in cement kiln co-processing, this study analyzed the multifaceted synergy of pyrolysis and mineralization processes of iron-rich sludge (SS) and waste incineration fly ash (FA) at optimal blending ratios. Based on the physicochemical properties of SS and co-pyrolysis experiments, it was found that Fe acted as a positive catalyst in pyrolysis between 700 and 1000 °C, while the endogenous polymerization effect of Fe(III) mineral groups dominated above 800 °C. Additionally, the study investigated the solidification and migration of heavy metals and the transformation of harmful elements (S, Cl, and P). Results indicated that the best mixture ratios for SS and FA were 6:4 and 9:1, respectively, and synergistic pyrolysis and mineral co-curing effects were observed in the pyrolysis temperature range of 50-1000 °C. The synergy between SS and FA allowed for the decomposition and solidification of harmful organic components and heavy metals, reducing environmental risks. Furthermore, in actual production, by mixing 100 tons of SS and FA with Portland cement with a daily output of 2500 tons, the compressive strength during early hydration stages can reach 34.52 MPa on the third day, exceeding the highest performance of Portland cement (62.5R) strength index specified in the standard.

Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the effectiveness of iron-rich minerals, specifically pyrite and siderite, in improving sludge dewatering and reducing triclosan (TCS) contamination through the advanced oxidation process using perxymonosulfate (PMS).
- - Siderite proved more effective than pyrite, demonstrating a 60.5% reduction in capillary suction time (CST) and significant improvements in specific resistance to filtration (SRF) and bound water content (BWC), which were critical for enhancing the sludge's dewatering performance.
- - Both minerals produced free radicals that aid in TCS removal, with siderite achieving a higher removal efficiency (43.9%) than pyrite (39.9%), and

Recent research has found biochar to be a cost-effective adsorbent for removal of perfluoroalkyl substances in water. To promote cleaner production and sustainable waste management, this study explored the potential to produce activated biochars by co-pyrolyzing sawdust with iron-rich biosolids and polyaluminum sludge. The maximum capacity to adsorb perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) reached 27.

The autotrophic denitrification of coupled sulfur and natural iron ore can remove nitrogen and phosphorus from wastewater with low C/N ratios. However, the low solubility of crystalline Fe limits its bioavailability and P absorption capacity. This study investigated the effects of amorphous Fe in drinking water treatment residue (DWTR) and crystalline Fe in red mud (RM) on nitrogen and phosphorus removal during sulfur autotrophic processes.

The purpose of this study was to provide detailed knowledge of the morphological properties of ash particles, including the volumetric fractions and 3D distributions of phosphates that lay within them. The ash particles came from digested sewage sludge co-combusted with K- and Si-rich wheat straw or K-rich sunflower husks. X-ray micro-tomography were combined with elemental composition and crystalline phase information to analyse the ash particles in 3D.
