Although there are some literature related to disintegration of waste-activated sludge by hydrodynamic cavitation, effects of some operational variables in an orifice-based system, such as cavitation number and orifice diameter on sludge solubilization efficiency, are missing. In this study, waste-activated sludge that originated from a food processing facility was disintegrated mechanically on a laboratory scale using an orifice-based hydrodynamic cavitator.
