Abstract

In coastal environments, especially under the high tide levels, the occurrence of seawater intrusion can directly affect the wastewater composition of the nearby wastewater treatment plants (WWTP); Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) systems are robust treatment processes, presenting excellent nutrient removal ability, high biomass retention and tolerance to toxic compounds. The daily variation of salinity levels in wastewater can affect the biological removal processes in WWTPs, a phenomenon scarcely explored for granular sludge systems.
