AbstractBy investigating the basic physicochemical characteristics, nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) and heavy metalconcentrations of the excess sludges from four wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in Xi’an city, the feasibility of applyingsewage sludge to landscaping in Xi'an was studied. The results showed that the basic physicochemical properties of sewagesludge satisfy the requirement of most plants growth. The sewage sludges are rich of organisms, nitrogen and phosphorus, butre...
