Sludge retention time

1 - 3 of 3 results

The study is aimed at defining possible correlations between sludge retention time (SRT), biomass growth, biomass activity and membrane cleaning requirements in a submerged membrane bioreactor (MBR). For the experimental campaign, a lab-scale MBR was continuously fed on pre-settled municipal wastewa

The characteristics and behaviors of soluble microbial products (SMP) in sequencing batch membrane bioreactors (SBMBRs) were investigated at various sludge retention times (SRTs). SMP concentrations in SBMBRs reached a minimum at SRT of 40 days and were consistently higher than those in effluents. T

Three identical Biosep® membrane bioreactors were operated at different sludge retention times of 8, 15 and 40 d in order to treat municipal wastewater. The design of this process is an aerated activated sludge reactor and a submerged microfiltration hollow-fibre membrane. The objective of this stud
