•Treated sludge transitions smoother from solid-like to liquid-like behaviour.•Linear relationship between rsCOD and G′/G′0 or G″/G″0 during thermal treatment.•Long heat treatment at low temperature is similar to short one at high temperature.•Modified Cox-Merz rule determines sludge flow curve from...
