HOSOMI M. / KATAYAMA Y. / LIN C. K. / et al. - ARTICLE DE PERIODIQUE - 2003

Phosphorus removal. The characteristics of bacteria are studied at a laboratory scale in a sequencing batch reactor. Quinone was used as a tracer of bacteria dynamics and analyzed in activated sludge. Correlations are given between quinone profiles and phosphorus removal.
