Acclimation of activated sludge to pentachlorophenol

Bench scale activated sludge reactors were acclimated to dextrose and then to low levels of pentachlorophenol. The metabolic activity of activated sludge was evaluated by its specific rate of dextrose uptake, Δs/Δt/X (measured by COD removal). Depression of the specific uptake rate, resulting from b...
