  • organic sludge such as activated sludge
  • the inventors are of the view that propagating ultrasonic waves throughout a liquid or semi-liquid organic sludge generates a mechanical force within the sludge via compression and rarefaction cycles associated with the ultrasonic waves. That is, the average distance between molecules in the sludge medium is changed (e.g. decreased and increased with the compression and rarefaction components of the ultrasonic wave) which causes cavitation and/or sonoporation when the average distance between molecules exceeds a critical distance. During sonoporation, microbubbles are generated which then burst with continuous exposure to ultrasound.

  • An advantageous chemical change is the breaking the chemical bonds within the sludge medium that bind water within or to the sludge so that this bound water is released in the form of free water.
  • An advantageous mechanical effect is that the ultrasound excitation can change viscosity of a liquid or semidiquid sludge which may promote the separation of the freed water from the sludge as discussed below.
  • a pulsed electric field can be used to separate the free water from the sludge by moving that free water away from the sludge in the direction of field excitation.

The released water can then be readily removed from the system 100 by means known to those skilled in the art, e.g. decanted or otherwise pumped from an outlet of the system 100.
