NaCl and (NH₄)₂SO₄ were selected as typical inorganic salts (10 wt% addition) in order to analyze their effects on the hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) of sewage sludge (SS). Results indicated that both salts could be adsorbed on the surface of hydrochar, resulting in amounts of hydrochar increasing and potentially serious nitrogen and chlorine issues upon employing SS hydrochar as solid fuel. NaCl and (NH₄)₂SO₄ could act as catalyst to promote hydrolysis and carbonization of SS, with (NH₄)₂SO₄ participating in the carbonization of SS. During combustion, Cl decreased the thermal decomposition temperature of hydrochar. The reported results can provide information to optimize the use of chloride salts and NH₄⁺ concentration for increasingly efficient HTC processes.
