| Abstract: | This paper describes the development of, and one year's experience with, a screening method based on the measurement of the respiration rate of activated sludge for assessing the possible inhibitory effect of dyestuffs on aerobic waste-water bacteria. Of the 202 dyestuffs tested, about 10% showed an inhibiting effect such that should significant quantities be likely to reach a sewage treatment plant a closer assessment of the likely effects would be indicated. |
