The treatment of sewage sludge using hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) can be an attractive alternative to conventional sludge disposal, but it should be accompanied by a drying process that uses Refuse-derived Fuel (RDF). However, the largest proportion of the energy demand in sludge-drying techniques is for heat sources, which has led to increased operation and maintenance costs. Recovering residual heat to apply to sludge drying significantly reduces both the operating cost and the greenhouse gas emissions. Suitable integration can be realized between drying technology and waste-to-energy (WtE) plants through the recovery of waste heat in WtE conversion as a heat source for sludge drying. This present paper investigates the indirect disk drying performance of the hydrothermal carbonization of sewage sludge using a low-temperature heat source in a laboratory and proposes an integration process with the drying technology of hydrothermal carbonization using waste heat. This paper concludes with experimental results that indirect disk drying technology can be applied in waste-heat recovery systems.
