This study reported a "treating waste by waste" strategy to dispose waste activated sludge (WAS), i.e. reverse osmosis (RO) brine-enhanced anaerobic fermentation. RO brine was hazardous by-product from seawater desalination process, which contains numerous Na+. After 4-day RO brine-enhanced anaerobic fermentation at Na+ concentration of 0.33 mol/L, 5.0 g/L VSS reduction (37.9% of VSS) was achievable, leading to considerable soluble chemical oxygen demand (SCOD) release of 349.6 mg/g VSS. Acetic acid was predominant
