The properties of activated sludge protistan community in two sequential batch reactors were examined in this work, operating with activated sludge (SBR) and with activated sludge and plastic biofilm carriers (SBBR), and certain characteristics were evaluated such as the species present, the corresponding biovolumes and their statistical importance to the treatment efficiency.
The biofilm reactor system supported an increased protozoan biodiversity and abundance of sessile species, due to the greater surface area, and to the development of integrated food webs on the surface of the biofilm material. The variation of organic load might initiate a competition between bacteria and protozoa for carbon resources affecting the removal efficiency of the wastewater treatment unit. Statistical analysis revealed that protozoan species observations represented important indicators for the determination of trophic relations in the activated sludge and they might comprise appropriate precursors for the prediction of effluent quality.

In the context of the European Climate Law (EU) 2021/1119), the Governance Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 and the Nature Restoration Regulation (EU) 2024/1991, the KAnG came into force on July 1, 2024.
Transformatives Klimarecht: Raum, Zeit, Gesellschaft

This article contends that climate law should be conceived as inherently transformative in a double sense. The law not only guides the necessary transformation of economy and society, but is itself undergoing transformation.
