Organics and nutrients contributions by benthalsludges under continuously accumulating conditions

Abstract

In this paper, the nutrient and organics release under continuously accumulating conditions of benthalsludge, the affect of frequency of addition and organic loading rates are analysed and discussed. The rate of organics release decrease with increasing time from start of experiment. The rate of organics release has been lower when the organics loading rate is less, and frequency of addition is more. However, the nutrients release is less when the frequency of addition is lower.
