Subsurface as a bioreactor : interaction between physical heterogeneity and microbial processes

Abstract: Infiltration systems are water treatment technologies where water vertically percolates through porous media while several biogeochemical processes occur. Biofilms are the main responsible for those biogeochemical processes due to their ability to colonize sediments as well as due to their role in transformation of organic matter and nutrients in aquatic ecosystems and subsurface environments. However, an excessive biofilm growth in sand filtration systems can significantly reduce their infiltration capacity (… Show more
