Wastewater can come from a variety of sources like homes‚ businesses‚ industries‚ runoff from roads‚ lawns and fields and is treated by municipal wastewater treatment facilities (Product‚ cornell). The solid material that remains after the treatment of wastewater is known as sludge (charac‚ cornell). Sludge can be employed in many different ways‚ it can be used as a soil additive or growing medium‚ sent to a composting facility‚ incinerated or landfilled (Char‚ cornell). Biosolids are derived
