Effect of controlling filamentous bulking sludge by Sequencing Batch Reactor Activated Sludge Process

Three groups of SBR reactors A, B and C with different aeration time were set up to culture the activated sludge which has already bulked. The results showed that the settling performance of activated sludge in reactor A changed a little, but reactors B and C had been significantly improved. High-throughput sequencing results showed that the aeration time had a significant inhibitory effect on the growth of Thothrix, and the longer the aeration time was, the more obvious the inhibition was. When the aeration time is more than 6h, the SBR mode can effectively inhibit filamentous sludge bulking, and the longer the aeration time, the better the effect.
