The activated paper mill sludge was treated with WF and some additives (sodium sulfide, nickel nitrate, ethyl acetate) for methane fermentation at $35^{circ}C$. Optmum C/N ratio was 60 out of three conditions (20, 30 and 60). The Period of 40% of methane content possibly ignition, was 2 days shorter than with non-treatment during 10 days. Nevertheless, the total amount of methane production showed the 1/8 level of control far the same period. The yield and content of methane were increased by the addition of sodium Sulfur and ethyl acetate. Sulfur was an essential factor in methane fermentation of paper mill sludge.
