Abstract

Abstract : As part of a continuing Air Force research effort toward the development of a biologic waste management system for closed environments, studies were conducted on a miniaturized activated sludge process for treating concentrated human wastes. During a 40-day continuous run, a prototype sludge reactor was fed batchwise (daily) with an increasing quantity of mixed human waste. Removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and the quality of the clarified process effluent were monitored as functions of time and the feeding rate.
