Abstract
A process for the production of a durable granular or pelletized sludge product is disclosed whereby a minimal amount of high calcium oxide material is utilized for pathogenic stabilization, the resulting material being further processed through an agglomeration stage. A portion of the agglomerated material is further processed in a moisture reduction or drying stage and recycled back to the agglomeration stage for percent solids adjustment and promotion of agglomeration. An apparatus for performing the process is also disclosed.
