Effects of pressure and deposit thickness on the stabilization rate of benthic marine sludge deposits

Creator:

Muellenhoff, W. P.

Abstract:

The biochemical degradation of domestic sludge deposits exposed to benthic marine conditions was investigated using a laboratory Deep Sea Simulator. The rate and extent of deposit stabilization were determined for select hydrostatic pressures and hydrogen acceptor conditions by monitoring depletion of particulate organic carbon in 2.0 and 3.0 centimeter deposits....
