A practical guide to the activated sludge process serving as a manual for linking operational changes to shifts in microbes and microbial populations
In The Biology of the Activated Sludge Process, experienced wastewater microbiologist, Michael Gerardi, delivers a hands-on, biological approach to the activated sludge process. The book offers a "natural" perspective, focusing on simplistic, reliable, and practical measures that professionals can use to quickly identify and correct operational problems in activated sludge processes (ASPs).
Gerardi covers the biochemical fundamentals of the ASP and in-plant techniques that enable operators to monitor and correct daily changes in operational conditions, sewer systems, and industrial discharges. He also explores the commonly overlooked distinction between sludge and solids and how this difference affects the day-to-day work of wastewater treatment plant operators.
Readers will also find:
- Examinations of significant organisms involved in treatment processes, their positive and negative roles, and operational conditions controlling their growth
- Detailed discussions of different types of BODs (Biochemical Oxygen Demand), such as particulate, colloidal, lipids, complex soluble, and simple soluble
- Explorations of problems that may be created by the addition of chemical compounds and how wastewater treatment success or failure is determined by biochemical reactions
- Effective and inexpensive tests and parameters useful for the identification and correction of common operational problems
This is an essential troubleshooting guide for wastewater operators to incorporate into their process control measures. The text is also useful for laboratory technicians at wastewater treatment plants and commercial laboratories, regulatory personnel who inspect wastewater treatment plants, and consulting engineers.

《活性污泥過程的實用指南：將操作變更與微生物及微生物族群變化聯繫起來的手冊》
在《活性污泥過程的生物學》中，經驗豐富的廢水微生物學家 Michael Gerardi 提供了一種實用的生物學方法來理解活性污泥過程。這本書提供了一種「自然」的觀點，專注於簡單、可靠且實用的措施，專業人士可以利用這些措施快速識別和修正活性污泥過程（ASP）中的操作問題。
Gerardi 涵蓋了 ASP 的生化基本原理以及使操作員能夠監控和修正日常操作條件、污水系統和工業排放的廠內技術。他還探討了常被忽視的污泥與固體之間的區別，以及這一差異如何影響廢水處理廠操作員的日常工作。
讀者還將發現：
- 對參與處理過程的重要生物體的檢視，包括它們的正面和負面角色，以及控制其生長的操作條件
- 對不同類型的 BOD（生化需氧量）的詳細討論，例如顆粒狀、膠體、脂質、複雜可溶性和簡單可溶性
- 探索添加化學化合物可能造成的問題，以及廢水處理的成功或失敗如何由生化反應決定
- 有效且廉價的測試和參數，對於識別和修正常見操作問題非常有用
這是一本對廢水操作員至關重要的故障排除指南，應納入其過程控制措施中。該文本對於廢水處理廠和商業實驗室的實驗室技術人員、檢查廢水處理廠的監管人員以及顧問工程師也非常有用。
