Image Processing and Analysis of Phase-Contrast Microscopic Images of Activated Sludge to Monitor the Wastewater Treatment Plants

Image processing and analysis is useful to monitor the activated sludge (AS) wastewater treatment plants based on the morphology of microbial aggregates (flocs) and filamentous bacteria. Phasecontrast microscopy is used to observe filamentous bacteria in the AS samples at lower objective magnificati...
