Evaluation of Landfill Stability by Carbon Utilization Patterns and Phylogenetic Taxonomy of Microorganisms

Microorganisms in landfill bioreactors for accelerated stabilization of solid wastes

“…The copy number and the diversity of 16S rRNA genes have proposed as a new index of landfill stabilization (2,63). However, fewer studies have focused on the functional microbial populations, although monitoring of their behavior is very important for improving the performance of LBRs.…”
