Aerobic granulation, a novel environmental biotechnological process, was increasingly
drawing interest of researchers engaging in work in the area of biological wastewater …

Biogranulation technology developed for wastewater treatment includes anaerobic and
aerobic granulation processes. Anaerobic granulation is relatively well known, but research …

Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) of microbial origin are a complex mixture of
biopolymers comprising polysaccharides, proteins, nucleic acids, uronic acids, humic …

Aerobic granulation is drawing increasing global interest in a quest for an efficient and
innovative technology in wastewater treatment. Developed less than two decades ago …

Wastewater treatment has been a challenge throughout the years due to varying influent

Aerobic granules were cultivated in a sequencing batch reactor (SBR) fed with soybean-
processing wastewater at 25±1° C and pH 7.0±0.1. The granulation process was described …

The formation and performance of granular sludge was studied in an 8l sequencing batch
reactor (SBR) treating an abattoir (slaughterhouse) wastewater. Influent concentrations …

Aerobic granular sludge was cultivated in a sequencing batch reactor fed with brewery
wastewater. After nine-week operation, stable granules with sizes of 2–7mm were obtained …

An aerobic granular sludge, cultivated with modified piggery wastewater, was capable of
simultaneously removing COD and N at high COD and N loading rates. Confirmed to be …

This study aimed to systematically investigate the effect of organic loading on granule
diameters, and on the composition of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) in granules …
