Theoretical and Empirical Developments of Attached Growth Biological Systems: Part I. Trickling Filters

摘要

Theories, mechanisms, microbiology and ecology of attached growth systems are described. Emphasis is placed on the investigation and design of rock media trickling filters, plastic media trickling filters. Nine performance models of trickling filters are presented in detail. Other design considerations presented are construction, process control, energy consumption, application, performance, reliability, limitations, and environmental impact.
