TLDR
In this article, the biological treatability of an integrated dairy plant wastewater containing a small fraction of whey-washwaters mixture has been experimentally investigated and the results have shown that the wastewater tested had practically no initially inert fraction, but generated residual microbial products amounting to 6-7% of the initial degradable COD.About:

Cultivation of filamentous cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) in agro-industrial wastes and wastewaters: A review
TL;DR: The factors that affect the biomass composition of cyanob bacteria are reviewed and several studies that discuss the culture of filamentous cyanobacteria in agro-industrial wastes and wastewaters are presented, with special emphasis on Spirulina.

Procedures for Determining Influent COD Fractions and the Maximum Specific Growth Rate of Heterotrophs in Activated Sludge Systems
TL;DR: In this article, the influent COD of municipal wastewaters has been categorised into fractions: readily (soluble) and slowly (particulate) biodegradable, and soluble and particulate unbiodegradability.

Assessment of the Initial Inert Soluble COD in Industrial Wastewaters
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed two different methods for the assessment of the initial soluble inert COD fraction and summarized their comparative evaluation for five different industrial wastes characterizing pulp and paper, meat processing, antibiotics, textile and dairy effluents.

The Concept of Soluble Residual Product Formation in the Modelling of Activated Sludge
TL;DR: In this paper, a model for the formation of these soluble residual products, (SRP), was proposed, relating the SRP formation to the hydrolysis of non-viable cellular materials in the reactor.
