Activated sludge has a high diversity of infectious agents. However, many of these microorganisms contribute greatly to the biological treatment process due to the enzyme production and capability for degrading a wide range of organic compounds in wastewater. The present review discusses the potential of aerobic granular sludge as a bio-startup (AGS-BS-up) for new wastewater treatment plants. The complex microbial community in activated sludge was investigated using 16S metagenomic analysis. The potential of aerobic granular sludge prepared from activated sludge to be used as a bio-starting medium for food wastewater treatment plants (FWWTP) was discussed. AGS-BS-up appears to have high applicability to enhance the biological treatment of food wastewater (FWW). The hypothesis behind using aerobic granular sludge as a bio-startup for FWWTP lies in the high microbial biodiversity in the aerobic granular sludge, which contributes effectively to the biological treatment of food wastewater. Based on the previous studies, the AGS-BS-up is efficient in improving the quality of FWW to meet international standards required for safe disposal into the environment.

活性污泥具有高度多样性的传染源。然而，由于酶的产生和降解废水中多种有机化合物的能力，许多微生物对生物处理过程做出了巨大贡献。本综述讨论了好氧颗粒污泥作为新废水处理厂生物启动（AGS-BS-up）的潜力。使用 16S 宏基因组分析研究活性污泥中复杂的微生物群落。讨论了由活性污泥制备的好氧颗粒污泥用作食品废水处理厂（FWWTP）生物起始介质的潜力。 AGS-BS-up 似乎对于加强食品废水 (FWW) 的生物处理具有很高的适用性。使用好氧颗粒污泥作为 FWWTP 生物启动的假设在于好氧颗粒污泥中具有高度的微生物多样性，这有助于有效地对食品废水进行生物处理。根据之前的研究，AGS-BS-up 可有效提高 FWW 的质量，以满足安全处置到环境中所需的国际标准。
