Possible nutrient limitations in single (activated sewage sludge) and dual (sludge plus phenol) co-disposals with refuse were examined with the objective of maintaining the fermentation balance and thus minimizing detrimental effects on leachate quality and, subsequent, environmental impacts.

β¦ Synopsis
The disposal of sewage sludge affects the environment as the sludge may contain harmful components such as pathogenic organisms, organic compounds, heavy metals and excess phosphorus and nitrogen. Depending on the method of disposal, these effects can be immediate or time-delayed and non-linear. The effects of dumped or landfilled sewage sludge can be characterized through its leaching capability, which depends on the treatment before dumping. Treatment may be simple dewatering or advanced incineration, wet oxidation or immobilization. Leachability is considered here.

The effect of soil treatment with sewage and sludge at three doses (1%, 10% and 20% w/w) on its fungal population was studied in vitro. The treatment of soil with sewage significantly increased the count of total fungi after 1 week by the high dose, and after 12 weeks by each of the three doses. Fun
## Abstract A semimicroβmethod for determining nitrogen in sewage sludges is described avoiding the use of a microβbalance or a microβburette. The whole estimation can be completed in just over one hour. Good agreement is shown between results obtained by this method and by the older Kjeldahl metho
