Concerns regarding energy security are raised due to the conventional fossil fuel depletion, which drives the need of diversifying fuel sources for power generation. Sewage sludge, which is a waste product from the wastewater treatment plant, contains energy that could be retrieved and reused. Typically, these sludge are treated as a form of schedule waste and disposed of in a landfill. In this work, the valorisation potential of sludge cake to produce higher-value products was studied through thermogravimetric analysis....It has been demonstrated through this study that the sludge cake from food processing industries is a promising feedstock pyrolysis to yield bio-products of higher values.
