    Abstract: Foaming and bulking in secondary mixed liquor particularly in activated sludge waste water treatment plants is a growing problem. The efficiency of secondary waste water treatment is critically dependent on the separation of the supernatant liquids from the sludge. Bulking and foaming primarily make it very difficult or impossible to achieve effect... Show More
