Sludge aggregation and biofilm formation are the most effective approaches to solve the
washout of anammox microorganisms. In this study, the structure and composition of EPS …

Anammox bacteria tend to self-aggregate, and biofilm-based anammox processes are
widely used as sustainable alternative methods for nitrogen removal from wastewater …

The chemical characteristics of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) of anammox
bacteria (AnAOB) play a crucial role in the rapid enrichment of AnAOB and the stable …

The high aggregation ability of anammox sludge has been extensively observed, but the
cause for their aggregation is challenging. Here the structure and composition of …

The effect of extracellular polysaccharides on the structural stability of granular sludge is
widely recognized, and determining their mechanism of action on the stability of granules …

Granules and flocs have been widely found co-existing in anammox granular systems, but
the segregation mechanism of granules and flocs is still largely unknown. Here, the …

Anammox aggregates have been extensively observed in high-efficiency nitrogen-removal
reactors, yet the variation and inherent cause of its aggregation capacity related to reactor …

Bacterial surface properties fundamentally affect the stability and aggregation of anammox
granular sludge. The variation in the surface properties of the granular sludge at different …

Anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing (anammox) bacteria are well known for their aggregation
ability. However, very little is known about cell surface physicochemical properties of …

The anammox process represents a sustainable and cost-effective technique for nitrogen
removal from wastewater, where granulation of anammox bacteria could be of great benefit …
