The competition between filaments and floc formers has been described previously using the kinetic selection and filamentous backbone theories. We hypothesized that differences in decay rates and storage abilities also affect this competition. We tested this hypothesis by integrating these four factors into a substrate‐utilization model to predict and explain coexistence in a completely mixed reactor. In addition, filamentous and nonfilamentous sludges were developed in laboratory‐scale reactors and analyzed to determine decay rates. The modeling results showed coexistence of the two organism types, and sensitivity analysis showed that the kinetic parameters, storage rate constants, and backbone coefficient had the greatest effect on the simulation results. Monte Carlo simulation showed the effect of storage, and the ranges of dilution rates wherein one group outcompeted the other were delineated.}, number={3}, journal={WATER ENVIRONMENT RESEARCH}, publisher={Water Environment Federation}, author={Lou, IC and Reyes, FL}, year={2005}, pages={287–296} } @article{lou_reyes_2005, title={Substrate uptake tests and quantitative FISH show differences in kinetic growth of bulking and non-bulking activated sludge}, volume={92}, ISSN={["1097-0290"]}, url={http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-28844437811&partnerID=MN8TOARS}, DOI={10.1002/bit.20662}, abstractNote={Abstract}, number={6}, journal={BIOTECHNOLOGY AND BIOENGINEERING}, author={Lou, I and Reyes, FL}, year={2005}, month={Dec}, pages={729–739} } @article{liao_lou_de los reyes_2004, title={Relationship of species-specific filament levels to filamentous bulking in activated sludge}, volume={70}, url={https://publons.com/wos-op/publon/15001845/}, DOI={10.1028/AEM.70.4.2420-2428.2004}, number={4}, journal={Applied and Environmental Microbiology}, author={Liao, J.
