Diffusion is the process by which CO2 is sequestered by oceans and released through them.
HCO3- is bicarbonate, the form which CO2 takes after diffusion in oceans
Sedimentation is the deposition of carbon dioxide in the form of calcium carbonate at the ocean beds
Runoff is the excess discharge from lands into the oceans.
Decay is degradation my microbes producing methane and carbon dioxide.
Respiration is the process by which animals take in oxygen to produce energy and release CO2 in the process.

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
