Microscopic analysis of sludge

Treatment plants that use biological processes are real living organisms that require special care.
To ensure an accurate diagnosis and maximum performance from these systems, it is essential to carry out a microscopic analysis of the sludge.
This analysis consists of a qualitative and quantitative survey of the biological flocs and microfauna present, allowing the current state of efficiency of the system to be identified and the necessary positive interventions to be determined.

Microscopic analysis is an essential tool for understanding the dynamics of biological systems and optimizing their performance.
By examining biological flocs, it is possible to assess their structure, size, density and composition.
This provides valuable information about biological activity, the health of the system and its ability to remove pollutants.

In addition, microscopic analysis makes it possible to identify the presence of microfauna, such as protozoa and beneficial microorganisms, which play a crucial role in the degradation of organic matter and the removal of nutrients.
These organisms play an important role in the balance and efficiency of the biological system.

The benefits of performing microscopic analysis on biological systems are significant.
Firstly, it provides an accurate assessment of the current state of the system, identifying possible deficiencies, imbalances or operational problems.
Based on this assessment, it is possible to implement corrective interventions and adjustments to improve treatment efficiency.

In addition, microscopic analysis helps to identify opportunities for optimizing and improving the system.
Understanding the composition of biological flocs and the presence of microfauna makes it possible to adjust operating parameters, such as aeration, nutrient dosage and hydraulic retention time, in order to promote an ideal environment for the growth and activity of beneficial microorganisms.

Microscopic analysis also offers the possibility of continuous monitoring of the system over time.
With periodic analysis, it is possible to track changes in the composition of the sludge and the presence of biological organisms, allowing a more accurate assessment of the system’s efficiency and facilitating decision-making for continuous optimization.
