| Abstract |
In some sewage-treatment plants of the activated sludge type, a thick foam may be formed at the surface of the secondary aeration and settling tanks. Such foams have often been found to be rich in actinomycetes. The report covers the work done on the problem between April 1971 and May 1974. Over 250 strains of actinomycetes have been isolated from foams or activated sludge from 19 different sewage-treatment plants located in 8 states. The actinomycete most commonly associated with foams is a previously undescribed Nocardia which has been given the name N. amarae. It has been demonstrated experimentally in the laboratory that N. amarae may cause the kind of foam observed in the plants. Factors affecting the growth of N. amarae have been studied and a method of control of the foam by addition of digester supernatant to the activated sludge is proposed. |
