The immediate maximum specific oxygen uptake rate (SOURim) was investigated as a potential process control parameter for the activated sludge system. Variability in effluent quality in terms of chemical oxygen demand correlated very well with the levels of SOURim at cell residence times of 3, 5, and 10 days. Transient response studied under batch growth conditions indicated a strong correlation between the SOURim, chemical oxygen demand, and the ribonucleic acid rates of change. The SOURim can therefore be used to qualitatively and quantitatively describe a given biomass thus making it a better suited parameter for use in process control strategies.

The purpose of the present work was to study the influence of a non-ionic surfactant, a nonylphenol with four ethoxylated units (NP4EO), on the activity of the microbial population present in a laboratory-scale activated sludge unit. Traditional control methods for this type of unit were used (measurement of suspended solids and chemical oxygen demand) as well as specific techniques for the measurement of bacterial activity (dehydrogenase activity and specific oxygen uptake rate) and the results were compared. It was shown that the Specific Oxygen Uptake Rate (SOUR) is the simplest and quickest way to carry out routine control of activated sludge activity, while measuring dehydrogenase activity provides more complete control. The results obtained indicated that there was no inhibition of microbial activity at a concentration of 5 ppm of NP4EO, which was not the case with a concentration of 10 ppm.
