Short chain carboxylic acids (SCCAs) production is one of the primary ways to recycle excess sludge (ES). However, the high cost for the SCCAs separation/extraction due to its complete miscibility in water hinders the practical application of SCCAs and the popularization of this recycling way. To ov...
