Biological treatment of wastewaters depends on microbial processes, usually carried out by
mixed microbial communities. Environmental and operational factors can affect …

This study examines the use of a moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) as a tertiary treatment
step for ammonia removal in high temperature (35–45° C) effluents, and quantifies different …

We operated 4 replicate membrane bioreactors (MBRs) in parallel to test if an acclimated
seed inoculum would evolve similarly following even distribution into replicates. A cloning …

Metagenomic sequencing was used to investigate the microbial structures, functional
potentials, and biofouling-related genes in a membrane bioreactor (MBR). The results …

Over a 3year period, interactions between nitrifying bacterial communities and the
operational parameters of a full-scale wastewater treatment plant were analyzed to assess …

Biomass characteristics and microbial community diversity between a submerged
membrane bioreactor with mixed liquor recirculation (MLE/MBR) and a membrane …

Abstract e clinical outcome of Helicobacter pylori infection has been particularly associated
with virulence genotypes. ese genotypes are useful as molecular markers in the …

This study investigated the nature of viscous sludge bulking within a molasses-fed
integrated fixed-film activated sludge (IFAS) and conventional activated sludge (AS) plant by …

Sequencing batch reactors were acclimated under aerobic and alternating anoxic/aerobic
conditions. Greater nitrification rates in the alternating reactor were investigated by …

A bacterial community in activated sludge from a full-scale municipal wastewater treatment
plant was monitored throughout the year with the use of FISH, RISA and DGGE techniques …
