Comparison of nitrogen removal and microbial distribution in wastewater treatment process under different electron donor conditions

Bacterial community dynamics in a functionally stable pilot-scale wastewater treatment plant

“…However at the same time, the bacterial community structure in the pilot-scale wastewater treatment system was not stable, and the average change rate every 15 days of the system was 20.4% ± 11.2%. A solid understanding of the ecological principles underlying microbial community structure is required before the goal of rational design to promote functionally stable microbial communities can be realized (Gentile et al, 2007b;Marzorati et al, 2008;Liu et al, 2010;Park et al, 2010;Vazquez-Padin et al, 2010). …”

Beneficial co-treatment of simple wet flue gas desulphurization wastes with freshwater sewage through development of mixed denitrification–SANI process

“…(1)-(3) for AD on sulphide and thiosulphate and HD on acetate, with assumption that both the AD and HD share the same biomass yields (E = [e À mass flowing into the biomass]/[e À mass donated by the electron donor])[24,27]. AD on sulphide ðE ¼…”

Co-occurrence of methanogenesis and N2 fixation in oil sands tailings

“…4). Lactobacillales was dominated by the genus Trichococcus which contains many species of soil bacteria and has been found in denitrifying and methanogenic batch cultures (Park et al, 2010;Viviantira et al, 2012); it also contains several species capable of fermenting citrate to acetate and formate (Stams et al, 2009). This suggests that both fixed N and a labile carbon source are required for Trichococcus to become dominant in the community.…”
