Title:

Abstract:
A successful sludge digestion of shipboard wastes containing sanitary, food garbage, and 0.05 crankcase oil was carried out by continuous fermentation in an apparatus developed by the authors. An initial waste of over 1000 mgl COD was reduced to less than 100 mgl COD in a six hour residence time. Although this was a preliminary Phase I study on laboratory feasibility of an aerobic oxidation process for shipboard waste, the potential advantages to scale-up for naval and other ship waste treatment are highly recommended.
