Abstract:Sludge retention time is an important parameter to the biological phosphorus removal system. This paper investigated the effect of long sludge retention time on biological phosphorus removal in Anaerobic/Anoxic/Aerobic process (A2/O). The results showed that prolonging sludge retention time (SRT) of the A 2 /O system had no significant impact on biological phosphorus removal efficiency, which slightly decreased from 92.9% (at an SRT of 12 d) to 92.1% (at an SRT of 30 d).
