Optimization of process parameters for the bioconversion of activated sludge by Penicillium corylophilum, using response surface methodology

The optimization of process parameters for the bioconversion of activated sludge by Penicillium corylophilum was investigated using response surface methodology (RSM). The three parameters namely temperature of 33"C, agitation of 150 r/min, and pH of 5 were chosen as center point from the previ...
