Abstract

A method of treating water with activated sludge, comprising a process for depolluting said water including a stage in which carbon pollution is oxidized, a nitrification stage which may optionally be associated with a denitrification state and/or a dephosphating stage, and a sludge ageing process. The method further includes a sludge concentration stage, said stage being performed upstream from the sludge ageing stage, said concentration being performed by phase separation using compressed air, e.g. in a flotation tank (3), and the concentrated sludge being recycled via the sludge ageing stage.
