TY - JOUR N2 - Two different porous ceramic carriers with immobilized activated sludge comprised a stationary filling of the reactors. Municipal wastewater was treated at hydraulic retention times from 15 to 70 min and internal circulation capacity of 20, 40 and 60 drn':h'. Depending on hydraulic retention time, the sludge yield ranged from 0.138 to 0.066 g TSS·g COD·' in reactor I and from 0.175 to 0.107 g TSS·g COD·' in reactor li. An increase in volumetric loading rate and internal circulation capacity caused a reduction in sludge yield. A decrease in the sludge yield corresponded to an increase in the ratio of endogenous to substrate respiration by the immobilized biomass L1 - http://journals.pan.pl/Content/122833/PDF-MASTER/4_AE_VOL_36_3_2010_Zielinska_Biomass.pdf L2 - http://journals.pan.pl/Content/122833 PY - 2010 IS - No 3 EP - 25 KW - Immobilization of activated sludge KW - wastewater treatment KW - biomass yield A1 - Zielińska, Magdalena A1 - Wojnowska-Baryła, Irena PB - Polish Academy of Sciences VL - vol. 36 DA - 3.04.2022 T1 - Biomass Yield in Porous Ceramic Carriers for Municipal Wastewater Treatment SP - 15 UR - http://journals.pan.pl/dlibra/publication/edition/122833 T2 - Archives of Environmental Protection ER -
