Settling time 

The settling time acts as a major hydraulic selection pressure on microbial community. A short settling time

preferentially selects for the growth of fast settling bacteria and the sludge with a poor settleability is washed out. 

Qin et al. (2004) reported that aerobic granules were successfully cultivated and became dominant only in the SBR 

operated at a settling time of 5 min. Mixtures of aerobic granules and suspended sludge were observed in the SBRs 

run at settling times of 20, 15, and 10 min. The production of extracellular polysaccharides was stimulated and the

cell surface hydrophobicity improved significantly at short settling times. These findings illustrate the fact that 

aerobic granulation is driven by selection pressure and the formation and characteristics of the granules may be

controlled by manipulating the selection pressure. Therefore, choice of an optimal settling time is very important in 

aerobic granulation. Granules with excellent settling properties are essential for the effective functioning of 

biological systems treating wastewater.
