Granules making up aerobic granular activated sludgeare to be understood as aggregates of microbial origin,
which do not coagulate under reduced hydrodynamic shear,and which subsequently settle significantly faster than
activated sludge flocs.
(First Aerobic Granule Workshop 2004, Munich, Germany)
Measurements:• fraction sludge > 0,212 mm•SVI5 and SVI30 comparable

How to make granules?Selection mechanism:settling pressure and/or short decant phase
Nitrification (NH4 + O2 NOx )
P-removal/anoxic growth: (COD + NOx + PO4
3- N2 + CO2 + H2O + poly-P)
Heterotrophic growth (COD + O2 CO2 + H2O)
Oxygen gradient in granule enables simultaneous COD, P and N-removal

Performance Ede STP
- Stable granulation
- Effluent quality
• without post treatment:
o Portho < 1 mg/l (no chemicals)
o (NH4 + NO3)-N < 10 mg/l (13 °C)
o SS < 30 mg/l
• with post treatment
o SS < 5 mg/l
- Recent improved operation results in lower SS
