Aerobic granulation in Sequencing Batch Reactor for industrial wastewater treatment.

摘要

Granulation is the process in which biomass forms discrete, well defined, smooth and dense pellets, without any application of support material. Aerobic granulation, similar as anaerobic granulation, could lead to very compact high performance reactors with elevated biomass accumulation and low sludge production. To date this process is not widely investigated and few is known on its applicability to full scale wastewater treatment.
