Abstract
Sewage sludge is generated in wastewater treatment plants as specific waste resulting from the processes of sewage purification and it requires the proper treatment. The growth in the number of people and use of modern more effective technologies of wastewater treatment results in an increase of amounts of produced sewage sludge. It would seem that municipal sewage sludge should enrich the soil with valuable elements (such as nitrogen, phosphorus, sulphur and magnesium) as well as organic matter due to its fertilizing and humus-generation facilitating features. However, the substance often contains excessive amounts of heavy metals and there is presence of organic pollution as well as pathogenic organisms and eggs of parasites. The introduction of prohibition of waste storage in 2016 as well as significant limitations to the use of sludge for agricultural purposes was a serious hindrance to the management of the waste. In order to verify the suitability of sludge for use in agriculture, samples of sewage sludge have been taken from one of wastewater treatment plants in the Malopolska province and an analysis of their elemental composition has been performed for better examination of the problem. Then the energy characteristics of the sludge have been checked.
