Microflora Analysis of 24 Microorganisms and Their Guiding Significance in Water Treatment (part 2)

The paramecium is evenly covered with cilia around the body. Some of the cilia at the back end are a little longer. The outer surface of the epidermis is relatively transparent, and the endoplasm is filled with granular substances.

There are more food bubbles in the paramecium, two of which are located in the body length of one quarter and the other in the body three quarters.

The height of the shell is about one-half of its diameter. The shell is usually brown or yellow and occasionally has a colorless and transparent shell.

Arcella have finger-like pseudopods that protrude from the shell holes and do not exceed 5 or 6. Its internal quality contains many food foams and storage granules.

The front end is flat and often has a slight depression, which is the narrowest part of the body. The back end is wider and rounder. The outer membrane has longitudinal stripes.

Uronema has a full body of cilia with a long tail hair at the back end.

The ventral surface of the front end is bent and a depression is formed in one-third of the front part of the abdomen, and the rear end is rounded.

The cilia distributed throughout the body are quite dense and uniform, and the endoplasm is relatively transparent.

In activated sludge, it is often found in the case of high BOD load and low dissolved oxygen. At the same time, fluctuations, trichomoniasis, etc. can be observed, which is a representative of non-activated sludge.

Metopus has a sparse scaly body that is wide and distinct, with a telescopic bubble at the end.

One-third of the body of the Trachelophyllum body is sharply cut to form a “neck.” The front end is truncated and straight or slightly convex to form a dome. The widest part is often at the back of one third. The back end is a bit thin and obtuse.

Trachelophyllum cilia distribute throughout the body, and the endoplasm contains many storage granules.

Trachelophyllum mainly occurs in the stage where the activated sludge is in a non-optimal state, which is an important reference for judging whether the activated sludge turns from bad or deteriorates.

However, Amphileptus consumes sessile ciliates that have a clarifying effect on water quality.

The widest part is located in the middle and is thin from the middle to the front and back. The “neck” is quite long, with the front end turning towards the ventral surface between one-third and one-half of the full length, with the cell mouth on the ventral side of the “neck.”

The Litonotus cilia fraction is on one side of the body and the endoplasm is quite transparent.

The Chilodonella cell is rounded on the ventral surface near the front end, and the cell mouth can protrude slightly outside of the body when feeding. There are many telescopic bubbles, which are irregularly distributed around the body.

It has 7 or 8 longitudinal grooves. The cell mouth is located at the front end of the depression. There is a tubular pharynx.

Two equally elongated flagella protrude from the cell mouth. One is always swiping in the front and the other is dragging in the back, there may be gliding

The back end is wider and truncated or rounded, and the body is tapered from the rear end. Thick flagella protrude from the front end is almost the same length as the body.

Peranema is pointing straight ahead, and the other thin and short flagella stick out and then bends back and attach to the membrane of the body, which is not easy to see.

The rim area is larger, with 8 anterior tentacles, 5 anterior, and 3 obliquely aligned. There are 5 abdominal tactile hairs and 5 hip ciliary hairs; the endoplasm contains a small number of vesicles.

There is not much in the activated sludge, and the tip caterpillar appears to be intermediate activated sludge protozoa when the treated water has a higher BOD than the E. urticae.
