Impact of Influent Characteristics on Activated Sludge Bioflocculation in Lab-scale Systems (Effect van influentkarakteristieken op de bioflocculatie van actief slib in laboschaal systemen) KU Leuven
Biological wastewater treatment is the most widespread method for treating both municipal and industrial wastewater. The driving force in the process is the activated sludge which is organized in aggregates or flocs and consists of a heterogeneous microbial community. The process is able to eliminate, in a cost-efficient manner, organic components, too high concentrations of nutrients and other pollutants from wastewater. At the end of the ...
