This review summarizes the microbiology and physiology of “Microthrix parvicella” and the methods of its growth control in activated sludge wastewater treatment plants. This filamentous bacterium is of high interest because of its worldwide involvement in severe bulking and foaming at wastewater treatment plants. We present a critical analysis of physiological and kinetic data on “M. parvicella” and...
Microthrix parvicella strain RN1, isolated by micromanipulation from an activated sludge treatment plant in Italy, is phylogenetically identical to two other isolates from Australia. Our Italian isolate of M. parvicella is a slow growing (μmax ranging from 0.3 to 0.5 d -1 ), aerobic organism that exhibits nutritional versatility, being able to utilize simple and complex compounds...
