Is there a link or some way to get ahold of the slide show online. Would love to show this to my fellow wastewater operators. Really fascinating stuff.
Food to Microorganism (F/M) Ratio, is defined as the rate of BOD or COD applied per unit volume of mixed liquor, F/M = (Q*So)/(MLVSS*V) or (Q*So)/(MLSS*V). A range of 0.2 - 0.6 (gBOD/gVSS*d) is recomended for a Complete Mix Activated Sludge process and it change for other reactor types and configurations. In the case of aerobic granules (Di Wu et al, 2018) recomended a range of 0.4 - 0.5 (gCOD/gTSS*d) to higher microbial diversity and pollutant removal efficiencies.

Very informative work.
Wow the big Man himself😮
What is the F/M ratio he keeps mentioning?
Food/micro-organisms ratio.
