Involvement of Crawling and Attached Ciliates in the Aggregation of Particles in Wastewater Treatment Plants
The biological community in activated sludge wastewater plants is organized within this ecosystem as bioaggregates or flocs, in which the biotic component is embedded in a complex matrix comprised of extracellular polymeric substances mainly of microbial origin. The aim of this work is to study the...
