heal.abstract	In this work the dye adsorption technique developed by Longmuir was applied to the study of activated sludge surface characteristics, and an attempt was made to relate these findings to the settling characteristics of the suspension. Furthermore, a comparison was made between the surface characteristics of activated sludge flocs, raw sewage solids, and final effluent solids. It was found that the dye adsorption capacity correlated well with the sludge volume index (Fig. 3), indicating that sludge settlement depends on the surface properties of the floc. Therefore, thorough study of these surface characteristics as well as other physico-chemical characteristics of sludge floc may result in a better understanding of the settling characteristics of activated sludge and help to explain phenomena related to settlement, such as bulking.	en
