    Notes: A synthetic waste (with glucose as carbon source) devoid of a source of nitrogen was purified in a laboratory scale pilot plant by a new modification of the activated sludge process. The process makes use of a separate carbon assimilation (oxidative assimilation) phase and an endogenous phase in which ammonia is added to a portion of the settled sludge and non-nitrogenous products stored in the cells in the assimilation phase are converted to protein. It was found that sludge so treated, when recycled to the assimilation tank, could carry out continuous oxidative assimilation of the waste. Various COD:N ratios were studied. At the highest, 70:1, 90% purificaton efficiency was achieved.

    Notes: Heterogeneous populations of sewage origin were grown continuously at, dilution rates from 1/12 hr-1 to dilute-out (1/1 hr-1) using glucose (1000 mg/l) as carbon source and three concentrations of NH3-N as the nitrogen source (COD:N = 70:1, 40:1, and 25:1). The effects of nitrogen level and growth rate (dilution rate) on substrate removal, biological solids production, cellular carbohydrate and protein, and NH4+-N in the effluent were examined. It was found that the optimum level of nitrogen supplementation for the synthetic nitrogen-deficient waste employed should not be based solely on the desired effluent quality with respect to COD removal but should include due consideration of reactor detention time (or dilution rate) and the allowable (or desirable) level of nitrogen leakage in the effluent.

    Notes: Batch experiments were run using heterogeneous populations to determine whether a hyperbolic equation of the type suggested by Monod could be used to depict the relation between specific growth rate, μ, and NH3-N concentration when ammonia N was the growth-limiting nutrient. The heterogeneous populations employed were developed from sewage seed grown on glucose at various levels of nitrogen and various dilution rates in completely mixed continuous flow reactors. It was found that the hyperbolic function could be used. Values of μm in the range of 0.4-0.7 hr-1 were observed, and values of Ks, in general, ranged from 1.5 to 4.0 mg/l. Variation in the values of these growth “constants” did not follow any discernible pattern related to past growth history (i.e., COD:N ratio or dilution rate at which the cells were previously grown).
