Abstract Metro Denver Sewage Disposal District No. 1 (Metro) in 1970 converted excess secondary aerators to aerobic digesters. The plant scale diffused air system was compared with a pilot scale open tank oxygen system using very fine bubble fixed and rotating diffusers. For the air system volatile suspended solids (VSS) reductions ranged between 11.2% and 47.2%. A significant correlation was observed between VSS reduction and detention time-temperature factor. Cold shock eliminated nitrification for a five month period. When invertebrates, particularly rotifers, comprised a significant fraction of the biomass, digestion was maximal. The pollutant concentration in the supernatant from the aerobic digester averaged 10% of that from an anaerobic digester. For the oxygen batch tests, biodegradable VSS digestion rate coefficient k averaged 0.27. No correlation was observed between DO concentration and VSS reduction rates. The temperature of the oxygen digested biomass increased with increased loadings.
