Abstract:Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) has been considered a breakthrough in the wastewater treatment sector given its key characteristics, such as excellent settleability, simultaneous removal of organic and nutrient pollutants, and compactness. However, the formation of granules often delays the start‐up of granular‐based systems, especially in large‐scale settings. This study addressed the start‐up of a pilot‐scale AGS sequencing batch reactor (SBR) treating domestic sewage, monitored for over 280 days. The challeng… Show more
