The treatment and disposal of sewage sludge from wastewater treatment plants is one of the most essential wastewater treatment and management issues. World volumes of sewage sludge and paper mill waste have been growing every year. Countries of the European Union produce about 10 million tonnes dry matter of sewage sludge annually. In 2021, a paper production reaches 90.1 million tonnes in the EU [3], and 4.3–40 kg dry matter of paper mill sludge is generated for every tonne of paper production. Sew-age sludge often contains pollutants harmful to human health (heavy metals, toxic sub-stances, drug residues, harmful metabolites, hormones, pathogenic organisms). How-ever, regarding sewage sludge, the main concern in the European Union is the content of heavy metals (Cd, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb and Zn). The major use of sewage sludge is in agricul-ture, and to less extent at power and thermal generation.
