Abstract | The treatment systems were studied over the two operating seasons, and operated as an aerated lagoon, as an activated sludge treatment system and as activated sludge system but including sludge reaeration. Data was collected on biological substrate assimilation, sludge growth, oxygen uptake and sludge settleability. Constants were obtained from this data. Success of the treatment system is reported and the costs of treatment computed. It is recommended that aerated lagoon treatment be used where 70 percent removal of BOD is desired and suspended solids are permissible in the effluent. Activated sludge treatment is recommended for greater than 90 percent BOD removal and where effluent suspended solids must be minimized. (Author) |
