Linking floc structure and settling properties to activated sludge population dynamics in an SBR.
Over a period of 227 days properties of activated sludge grown in an sequencing batch reactor (SBR) operated under stable conditions were analyzed. Settling properties (sludge volume index (SVI)) of the activated sludge were compared with on-line measurements of floc size and size distribution obtained by using a laser light scattering technique (Malvern Mastersizer/S, Malvern, UK), and with me...
متن کاملFILAMENTIOUS BACTERIA IDENTIFICATION & PROCESS CONTROL A Simple Approach
INTRODUCTION Under normal conditions in activated sludge, bacteria occur singly, in small chains or clumps. Under adverse conditions however, bacteria that grow in filaments begin to form longer chains called filamentous bacteria or “filaments”. Filaments can dominate in the wastewater treatment system under a variety of conditions. These conditions are usually less favorable for the floc-formi...
متن کاملAutomatic identification of activated sludge disturbances and assessment of operational parameters.
Activated sludge systems are prone to be affected by changes in operating conditions leading to problems such as pinpoint flocs formation, filamentous bulking, dispersed growth, and viscous bulking. These problems are often related with the floc structure and filamentous bacteria contents. In this work, a lab-scale activated sludge system was operated sequentially obtaining filamentous bulking,...
متن کاملThe Formation of a Model Floc Able to Decompose Phenol by the Mixed Culture C)f Bacteria Isolated from Activated Sludge
Several floc-forming bacteria and phenol-decomposing bacteria were isolated from a phenol-adapted activated sludge. Strain No. 12 was the best floc-former and the ratio of flocculated cells to total cells was 90 or more. A model floc was formed by the mixed culture of the strain No. 12 and No. 3, which was one of representative strains of phenoldecomposing bacteria. This model floc can successf...
متن کاملIsolation of floc-producing bacteria from activated sludge.
Although the activated sludge process for stabilizing liquid organic wastes is primarily a biological process, very little research has been conducted on the pure biological phases of this process. Until the work of Butterfield (1935), activated sludge was considered by some as a physio-chemical process and by others as a bio-chemical process. Butterfield isolated a bacterium, Zoogloea ramigera...
