Activated sludge is a widely applied wastewater treatment process that mainly uses
suspended microbial flocs to remove pollutants in wastewater. With the characteristics of …

Activated sludge bulking caused by filamentous bacteria is still a problem in wastewater
treatment plants around the world. Bulking is a microbiological problem, and so its solution …

Performic acid (PFA), a new generation of disinfectant, has shown outstanding performance
for wastewater treatment. However, the effect of PFA on wastewater microbial community …

Activated sludge from municipal wastewater treatment processes can be used directly for the
production of biodegradable polyesters from the family of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) …

Abstract Membrane-Aerated Biofilm Reactors (MABRs) are becoming a popular process
intensification alternative within wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). Indeed, the nitrogen …

Filamentous Chloroflexota are abundant in activated sludge wastewater treatment plants
(WWTPs) worldwide and are occasionally associated with poor solid-liquid separation or …

The partial nitritation/anammox process is a popular process for sidestream nitrogen
removal, but the process is sensitive to disturbances and requires extensive surveillance …

For a successful granulation process in activated sludge systems, the stimulation of slow
growing organisms such as glycogen accumulating microorganisms (GAOs) is a key factor …

Microbes are the gears that sustain all forms of life in planet Earth and are expected to
