Abstract: The developing of the infrastructure for wastewater collection and treatment in Romania, with respect to Accession Treaty, is leading more and more to the production of huge quantities of sewage sludge, as direct result of the waste water treatment. This fact generates a fivefold increase in estimated production of sludge by 2020 when all the human agglomerations that have more than 2,000 inhabitants must be provided with sewerage network and treatment plant equipped with sludge processing line. The rapid and rational development of a national policy for management of sewage sludge to establish a broad and short, medium and long term must be emerged and implemented, as a necessity. It is the obligation of the wastewater treatment plant operators to identify best environmental options and practices for treatment, recovery/disposal of sludge, at sustainable and efficient cost.
