An Outbreak of Nonflocculating Catabolic Populations Caused the Breakdown of a Phenol-Digesting Activated-Sludge Process

Activated sludge was fed phenol as the sole carbon source, and the phenol-loading rate was increased stepwise from 0.5 to 1.0 g liter(−1) day(−1) and then to 1.5 g liter(−1) day(−1).
