In this study, the effect of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) pre-treatment for sewage sludge prior to anaerobic digestion wasassessed using a batch test with an objective to decrease nitrogen, dissolved sulfide and siloxane in sewage sludge. Atotal of 6 sets of experiments (Blank, 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100g H2O2/kg wet sludge) were carried out, each with duplicates.To assess the effect of different dosages of H2O2 on anaerobic digestion, the treated sewage sludge was used for biochemical methane potential (BMP) test and SCODcr concentration. Due to the H2O2 pre-treatment, solubilization of SCODcr in pretreated sludge increased by 89% compared to raw sewage sludge, whereas T-N and NH3-N concentrationdecreased. Cumulative methane yields were increased for all pretreated samples due to increased sludge solubilizationthrough H2O2 pre-treatment. In addition, dissolved siloxane concnetrations were decreased for all pretreated samples. Thus,a reduction in dissolved siloxane concenrtation can decrease the siloxane generation potential of sludge during anaerobicdigestion. However, dissolved sulfide concentration remained same. Although H2O2 dosage did not show any furtherimpact on dissolved sulfide, they have significantly decreased T-N, NH3-N and dissolve siloxane concentrations beforeanaerobic digestion.
