Abstract |
A field investigation was conducted to determine the effect of organic carbon to ammonia nitrogen ratio (C/N) on activated sludge subsidence and dewatering characteristics. C/N changes were made on one of two full-scale activated sludge systems of a pulp and paper mill. Bench scale tests were used to evaluate and compare the effect on solids subsidence characteristics. Pilot flotation thickening and pilot vacuum filtration tests were performed to evaluate and compare the effect on dewatering characteristics. (Modified author abstract) |
