Carbonaceous compounds behavior in biological activated sludge process e S, will pass through the treatment process and be discharged with the effluent X is enmeshed in the activated sludge. The mass of X entering the system will equal the mass leaving the system via activated sludge wasting. Thus, XI has the principal effect of increasing the mixed liquor suspended solid(Mlss)concentration e Ss is taken up by activated sludge in a matter of minutes and metabolized, giving rise to a high unit rate of oxygen demand for synthesis e Xs must first be absorbed onto the microorganisms, and broken down to simple chemical units(ss) by extracellular enzymes before finally being metabolized by the microorganisms 05/10/2002
