Bacterial extracellular polymers and flocculation of activated sludges

The extracellular polymers produced by bacteria play an important role in bacterial aggregation or bacterial flocculation in secondary waste treatment. The mechanisms responsible for this floc formation are thought to be polymer induced adsorption and interparticle bridging among bacterial cells or...
