Abstract:
Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) is a promising technology in domestic and industrial wastewater treatment. Aerobic granules are self-immobilized
microbial aggregates, without carriers, characterized by compact dense structure, high retention of biomass, high efficiency for pollution removal, and good settling ability. The formation and stability of aerobic granular sludge are influenced by a number of factors, such as dissolved oxygen
concentrations, aeration time, type of carbon source, shear forces, starvation period, settling time. Due to the layered structure of the granule, with an outer aerobic layer and anoxic and anaerobic zones towards the center of the granule a simultaneous removal of C, N and P is possible. AGS
technology has the potential to reduce infrastructure and operating costs of wastewater treatment. This work presents an up-to-date review of the literature focusing on AG granulated mechanism and properties of aerobic granules.
