Most of the excess sludge from a wastewater treatment plant (60%) is disposed by landfill. As a resource utilization of excess sludge, the production of biodegradable plastics using the sludge has been proposed. Storage polymers in bacterial cells can be extracted and used as biodegradable plastics. However, widespread applications have been limited by high production cost. In the present study, activated sludge bacteria in a conventional wastewater treatment system were induced, by controlling the carbon: nitrogen ratio to accumulate storage polymers. Polymer yield increased to a maximum 33% of biomass (w/w) when the ON ratio was increased from 24 to 144, where as specific growth yield decreased with increasing ON ratio. The conditions which are required for the maximum polymer accumulation were optimized and are discussed. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
