Summary:
Filamentous bulking and foaming are the most frequent operational
problems in activated sludge plants. This recent book provides a
comprehensive, concise guide to the microbiological and technical
aspects of bulking and foaming control. The result of over 25 years
of research, the book stresses practical control measures based on
kinetic and metabolic selection theories, as well as on case
histories. Topics in the book include: biochemical processes in
wastewater treatment, evaluation ofseparation problems, settling and
foaming principles, bulking and foaming control methods, and system
design. More than 100 tables and figures illustrate complex
processes, and over 500 references provide a detailed compendium of
available resources. It was the intention of the author to summarize
in this book all essential pieces of information on both the
microbiological and technical aspects of bulking and foaming control,
so microbiologists and engineers can find new and helpful information
from each other's field without studying vast numbers of primary
literature sources. Naturally, the practical pieces of information
required for solving practical operational problems are more
stressed. The book is arranged into six major chapters which are
subdivided into uniform topical sections. The reader interested in a
particular problem or searching for a particular solution does not
necessarily need to read the whole book to get the answer. There are
many cross-references in the text which will lead the reader to the
background of the problem, and to show its connection to similar
problems and their solutions.
