Biocontrol of foaming in activated sludge plants with bacteriophages

活性污泥系统是澳大利亚最广泛使用的废水处理工艺。然而，大多数最终遭受膨胀和起泡的事件，其中高水平的生物固体与处理后的废物一起离开工厂，代表严重的污染危害。解决这些问题的尝试成效有限。本文提出的高度新颖的生物防治方法将提供一种具体、环保和安全的方法，以保护我们的河流、溪流和海洋免受这些问题的有害后果

Activated sludge systems are the most widely used processes for treating wastewater in Australia. Yet most eventually suffer from episodes of bulking and foaming, where high levels of biosolids leave the plant with the treated waste, representing serious pollution hazards. Attempts to solve these problems have met with limited success.The highly novel biocontrol method proposed here will provide a specific, environmentally friendly and safe method to protect our rivers, streams and oceans form the harmful consequences of these problems
