Protozoa in wastewater treatment processes: A minireview
TL;DR: The Sludge Biotic Index (SBI), an index based on the structure and abundance of the microfauna inhabiting the activated sludge and mixed liquor, has been devised to monitor activated-sludge plant performance.

Protozoa in biological sewage-treatment processes—I. A survey of the protozoan fauna of British percolating filters and activated-sludge plants
C.R Curds,A Cockburn +1 more
TL;DR: No real evidence was found to suggest that any particular component of industrial effluents had, by itself, any harmful effects upon the protozoan populations of activated-sludge plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
The structure of Ciliated Protozoa communities in biological sewage-treatment plants
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined mixed-liquor from 39 activated-sludge plants and of biological film from 49 rotating discs microscopically for the presence of Ciliated Protozoa.
Journal ArticleDOI
The ecology and function of Protozoa in sewage purification
TL;DR: Seasonal recording of the Protozoa in various sewage disposal units has shown that, together with changes correlated with the degree of purification of the sewage, fluctuations occur as a result of the interplay of seasonal non-specific factors and local specific factors.
