What Does CMAS Stand For?
CMAS stands for Completely Mixed Activated Sludge
CMAS, or Completely Mixed Activated Sludge, is a wastewater treatment process characterized by the continual mixing of wastewater and activated sludge. This method promotes optimal contact between microorganisms and organic pollutants, enhancing the efficiency of biodegradation. CMAS systems are designed to maintain uniform conditions throughout the reactor, facilitating effective aeration and biomass retention, which ultimately leads to improved treatment performance and reduced operational costs.
