Sludge and scum usually contain bacteria, but the terms do not mean bacteria, they just mean sticky, gooey, messy, nasty, filthy substances.
The cheapest and most environmentally friendly way would be to use water and vinegar. It kills bacteria and eats up toothpaste, soap scum and mold.
Scrubbing Bubbles Soap Scum Remover is great at removing soap scum from your glass shower doors.
Cleaning soap scum off of a glass shower door can proove to be very difficult. This is due to the fact that soap scum can easily build up and become very resilent to removal. The best product to clean this soap scum is the product CLR.

A scum gutter is a channel or trough designed to collect and divert unwanted debris, foam, or scum that accumulates on the surface of liquids, particularly in industrial processes or wastewater treatment. It helps maintain the efficiency of the system by preventing these contaminants from re-entering the main body of liquid. Scum gutters are commonly used in various applications, including sewage treatment plants, clarifiers, and oil-water separators.
Soap scum is actually what you get when soap combines with minerals in your water which forms a chemical reaction. It is not bacteria or mold but it can be a house for bacteria to multiply and live. Some soap formulas leave more soap scum than others but they don't deposit bacteria or mold. Bleach is a great product for killing this bacteria and scum.

Anaerobic sludge is a type of sludge produced in anaerobic digestion processes where organic matter is broken down by microorganisms in the absence of oxygen. It is rich in methane-producing bacteria and can be used in biogas production for renewable energy generation.
To allow for the scum and sludge layers to get cleaned out because over time they continue to grow leaving less and less room for the water the seperates our of your waste.
Bacteria. Sewage consists of domestic and industrial waste and sometimes drainage from rainfall. First the sewage passes through screens to removal the larger soilds, and passes into a settlement tank. After this the liquid component and sludge are treated separately. Aerobic bacteria digest, breakdown and oxidise organic components of the liquid component in oxidation ponds(liquid trickled from a rotating arm over stons with bacteria on them) OR an activated sludge tank(airbubbled through bacteria and sludge). This is because these bacteria need oxygen for repiration/metabolism to break down the sludge efficiently. The digestion of more soild sludge is carried out by anaerobic bacteria in tanks, producing a mixture of carbon dioxide and methane. The digested sludge may be used as compost/fertiliser to grow plants. The methane can be used as fuel source at the sewage treatment plant to heat the plant or to produce electricity. Sewage treatment reduces the organic content and suspended material to a level that does not harm a river receiving the effluent.
The white scum floating on the surface of water could be due to mineral deposits, oils, or organic matter like algae or bacteria. It is important to identify the source to determine if it poses any health or environmental risks.

The municipal waste treatment phase that uses aerobic bacteria to decompose and digest waste solids is called the biological process or the activated sludge process. In this process, wastewater is mixed with bacteria-rich sludge in an aerated tank, creating an oxygen-rich environment that promotes the growth of aerobic bacteria. These bacteria break down and digest the organic matter in the waste solids, resulting in the purification of the wastewater.
Dried sludge contains organic matter and nutrients that can improve soil fertility and structure, promoting plant growth. It also helps to recycle nutrients and reduce waste disposal costs by reusing organic materials from wastewater treatment plants. Properly treated and applied, dried sludge can be a sustainable and cost-effective option for land fertilization.
Pilot fish eat the bacteria and scum that accumulates on the sharks' scales, but other than that they just hitch a ride.
