MLVSS in Design of a Complete Mix Activated Sludge Reactor Formulas

MLVSS refers to the amount of active microbial biomass, which is crucial for the biological degradation of organic pollutants. And is denoted by X_a. MLVSS is usually measured using the Milligram per Liter for Density. Note that the value of MLVSS is always positive. Typically, the value of MLVSS lies in the range from 1000 to 6500.

FAQ

What is the MLVSS?

MLVSS refers to the amount of active microbial biomass, which is crucial for the biological degradation of organic pollutants. MLVSS is usually measured using the Milligram per Liter for Density. Note that the value of MLVSS is always positive. Typically, the value of MLVSS lies in the range from 1000 to 6500.

Can the MLVSS be negative?

No, the MLVSS, measured in Density cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure MLVSS?

MLVSS is usually measured using the Milligram per Liter[mg/L] for Density. Kilogram per Cubic Meter[mg/L], Kilogram per Cubic Centimeter[mg/L], Gram per Cubic Meter[mg/L] are the few other units in which MLVSS can be measured.
