2. The rate of auto-oxidation increases linearly with an increase in the value of G0
indicating that the higher the input blending energy the more rapid the auto-oxidation.
3. Washing the sludge with 0.05M phosphate buffer together with blending further
improves its auto-oxidation rate and settleability.
4. Assuming waste activated sludge as a Bingham plastic, the coefficient of plastic
viscosity can be obtained from the concentration of suspended solids from the
relationship given in Equation 4.
