About this document
Contact Stabilization in Wastewater Treatment by Garfield Smith is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document provides an overview of the contact stabilization activated sludge process for wastewater treatment. It describes how the process uses two aeration tanks, with influent entering the contact tank for 30 minutes to 1 hour to undergo biosorption before being sent to the stabilization tank for aeration and settling. The process has advantages like operating at a conventional loading range and reducing BOD, but disadvantages include not removing nutrients and potential problems with sludge settling
