Abstract excerpt

Excess biomass accumulation in reactor biodegradation processes is undesirable: it increases the disposal cost and upsets the operation of biological reactors if not properly controlled. In this study, we investigated the feasibility of using ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation to reduce biomass a...
