✦ Synopsis

Shifts were induced into the microbial community of activated sludge by the pulse addition of soluble starch. The subsequent changes of amylolytic and proteolytic microbial populations were recorded. Four amylolytic strains were isolated and characterized with regard to carrying capacity, specific surface and growth kinetics. The competitive ability of these strains was studied by means of two-member competition experiments. These experiments were analysed

A laboratory-scale activated sludge unit was fed continuously with a simulated industrial wastewater, consisting of a dilute solution of inorganic salts, at a rate giving a mean retention time of about 3 days. The system produced a well-settling sludge which on examination by electron microscopy was
