Biofilms - Investigative Methods and Applications (Paperback): Hans-Curt Flemming, Ulrich Szewzyk, Thomas Griebe Biofilms - Investigative Methods and Applications (Paperback)

R2,101 Discovery Miles 21 010 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Until now, techniques for studying biofilms- the cellular colonies that live in drinking water systems, wastewater operations, even ground and surface water- have been limited. Yet during the last decade, biofilms have become a critical element in water quality preservation systems, a key component of wastewater treatment biological reactions and the subject of extensive microbiological inquiry. An understanding of biofilm development, structure and dynamics is one condition for improving water supplies and for addressing technical problems such as biofouling, corrosion and bioweathering. Biofilms: Investigative Methods and Applications provides the first in-depth assessment of current and experimental ways to study biofilms, both in sample form and in situ. It shows how sensors, microscopy, lasers, and calorimetry, among other tools, can be used to obtain data on the morphology and metabolism of biofilms. This text is the first to organize and examine the best methods for investigating biofilms. It covers culture-based methods and emerging nondestructive techniques. It also shows how they can be used to characterize biofilms in a variety of manmade settings, such as sewers, wastewater plants, and drinking water distribution systems, as well as in karsts and groundwater sources. In clarifying the way biofilms are studied, the book offers new insights into these living films. It also applies inquiry techniques to the many problems confronting the environmental specialist-corrosion control, biofouling, and the improvement of fixed reactors in wastewater treatment. At the same time it explains technologies for the controlled growth of biofilms and shows how biofilms can be effectively monitored and subjected to quantitative analysis. The technical information in Biofilms: Investigative Methods and Applications is designed to be of use to engineers and researchers and to be helpful in the generation of electronic data.

Was ware die biologische Abwasserreinigung ohne Mikroorganismen? Die Ant wort auf diese Frage ist zweifellos trivial. Nicht trivial ist aber die Antwort auf die Ab Frage nach den Mikroorganismen selbst, die in Anlagen zur biologischen wasserreinigung tatig werden und uns helfen, die Qualitat unserer Grund- und Oberflachengewasser zu verbessern und langfristig auf einem hohen Niveau zu halten. Ober ein Jahrhundert hinweg haben sich Wissenschaftler und Praktiker bemiiht, die Artenzusammensetzung mikrobieller Lebensgemeinschaften in ihrer Abhangigkeit von den vorherrschenden Milieufaktoren erkennen und ver stehen zu lernen. Erst in jiingster Zeit gelingt uns aber ein vertiefter Einblick in die Welt der Belebtschlammflocken und BiofIlme. Neue Analysentechniken und neue Auswertemethoden haben dazu beigetragen, daB heute mehr Licht in das Dunkel der "black box" eindringen kann. Die Entwicklung der biologischen Abwasserreinigung befindet sich an einer Erkenntnisschwelle. Die Belebtschlammflocke hat ihren Namen deshalb erhalten, weil beim Blick durch das Mikroskop sich auch dem ungeiibten Betrachter ein vielfaltiges und bewegtes Treiben eroffnet. Belebtschlamm lebt. Ober Jahrzehnte hinweg standen die Protozoen und niederen Metazoen im Belebtschlamm und Tropfkorper rasen denn auch im Zentrum des Interesses. Verteilung und Haufigkeit des Vorkommens einzelner Leitorganismen wurden gem essen und in Beziehung zu den ProzeBbedingungen gebracht, unter denen die biologische Abwasser reinigungsanlage betrieben wurde. Daraus entwickelten sich die Empfehlungen und Vorschriften, die bis heute fur den Bau und Betrieb biologischer Klaran lagen maBgebend sind."

Was haben Mikrobiologie und Okologie der Abwassertechnik zu bieten? Zur Optimierung der Abwasserreinigung sowie zur Fruherkennung und Vermeidung von Storungen ist es notwendig, die Organismen zu kennen, von denen die Reinigungsleistung vollbracht wird, und zu wissen, welche Wechselwirkungen sie untereinander entwickeln und wie sich Veranderungen des Nahrstoffangebots auf Zusammensetzung und Effektivitat der Population auswirken. Daruberhinaus bietet die mikrobielle Okologie auch Ansatze, die biologischen Ursachen von Schwimmschlamm, Blahschlamm und Schaumbildung besser zu verstehen und ihnen fruhzeitig gezielt entgegenzuwirken. Anhand konkreter Beispiele werden Moglichkeiten und Grenzen klassischer und gentechnischer Methoden zur Charakterisierung der Abwassermikroorganismen demonstriert.
