Image analysis to quantify morphological changes in granular sludge induced by nitrate in EGSB reactors

Four EGSB reactors (R1 to R4) were operated at an organic loading rate of 10 kgCOD/(m³.d), hydraulic retention time of 3.6 h, upflow velocity of 10 m/h and different influent nitrate concentrations (0, 20, 60 and 100 mgN-NO_3-/L for R1, R2, R3 and R4, respectively. After about 20 days of operation,...
