MICROCOLONIES OF BACTERIA IN BIOESTIMATION - THE BIOLOGICAL ESTIMATION OF THE WATER TREATMENT PROCESS
Abstract
Microcolonies of bacteria living in a common fibrous matrix and dyes rust color with precipitating iron oxides are described. They are isomorphous (identical at sight) but represent different systematic groups. These microcolonies live both in fresh water and also present in soil moisture and activated sludge in airtanks. Their populations becomes exceedingly large, when biological transformation of organic substances due to the saturation of water with poorly oxidialing substances like soluble humus fractions, becomes disordered.
Data on the dynamic of the population of the microcolonies is used in new hydrobiological control processes of wastewater treatment and self-purification natural water — bioestimate. For distinguishing the microcolony the term siderotheca is suggest.
