Abstract
⺠Microwave irradiation and thermal heating as methods for sludge pre-treatment. ⺠Microwave irradiation turned out to be superior over thermal pre-treatment. ⺠900 W irradiation showed to be less energy demanding compared to 700 W. ⺠Pre-treatment at 70 °C allowed to achieve the highest energy profit. ⺠Microwave pre-treatment ensured high degree of sludge sanitation.
