“…Sometimes, the landfill site may even collapse due to insufficient strength of sludge. Moreover, metabolites in the leachates can be more toxic than its precursors (Kamler and Soria, 2012).…”

“…However, the odour control is problematic both in the processing stage and storage areas (Campbell, 2000). Oleszczuk (2008) reported composting could significantly increase the toxicity of sewage sludge, which may be associated with the increased mobility and bioavailability of metabolites (Kamler and Soria, 2012). On the other hand, the market for composted sludge is a prerequisite.…”

“…SCWO technology has been developed by MIT for NASA to provide the use of a single system to treat the wastewater generated by spacecraft staff about 40 years ago [30]. The first commercial SCWO system was established in 1980s by MODAR company (Japan) to treat military hazardous wastes.…”

“…A high-speed tubular reactor was built. The reason for the high-speed design of the reactor is to prevent clogging by holding suspension solids [30]. It was also preferred the use of mechanical brushes to prevent the accumulation of salt and solids [29].…”

“…Supercritical Fluids International (SCFI) company (Canada) purchased Aquacritox from Chematur in 2007. Using the tubular reactor, the system is operated to treat sewage sludge, for electricity generation and recovery of valuable products (CO 2 , phosphorus, silica, iron) [30,35]. It has a mixing pipe configuration that can be used at the inlet and outlet of the reactor to cope with corrosive products, and the reactor is operated with limited raw materials.…”

a b s t r a c tSupercritical water oxidation (SCWO) has been an innovative technology for the treatment of aqueous and hazardous organic wastes for 35 years. The technology provides cleaner output products and energy recovery. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the latest state of SCWO, which is an innovative and promising technology, according to the information obtained from the lab-scale, pilot-scale and full-scale applications. The process has been extensively used mostly in laboratory or pilot scale plants for model and real wastewater treatment. Industrial SCWO plants have usually closed due to corrosion, clogging and high cost problems. In order to operate this innovative technology efficiently, the main suitable wastewater should be selected, appropriate reactor design should be used, more durable materials should be produced, efficient pre-treatment should be determined so as to decrease operating costs and technical solutions should be determined. Otherwise, SCWO studies may be limited to laboratory and R&D studies.
