| Abstract: | Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) production patterns and the influence of oxygen (O2) concentration were studied based on a well operated composting plant. A real-time, online multi-gas detection system was applied to monitor the concentrations of H2S and O2 in the pile during composting. The results indicate that H2S was mainly produced during the early stage of composting, especially during the first 40 h. Lack of available O2 was the main reason for H2S production. Maintaining the O2 concentration higher than 14% in the pile could reduce H2S production. This study suggests that shortening the interval between aeration or aerating continuously to maintain a high O2 concentration in the pile was an effective strategy for restraining H2S production in sewage sludge composting. |
