Non-targeted facilitation of primary sludge anaerobic fermentation by micro-aeration and the simultaneous nutrients transformations

Mohammed Mouhib, Chenxi Liu, Lin Li, Qiang He

Anaerobic fermentation is a widely used technology for resource recovery from municipal sludge (e.g., primary sludge). Micro-aeration is an emerging strategy which can be incorporated into this technology. However, the effect of micro-aeration on the anaer ...

Single CSTR can be as effective as an SBR in selecting PHA-storing biomass from municipal wastewater-derived feedstock

Pierre Rossi

A key step in the production of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) from organic waste streams is the selection of a biomass with a high PHA-storage capacity (selection-step), which is usually performed in sequencing batch reactor (SBR) according to the state-of- ...

Reoxidation of Reduced Peat Organic Matter by Dissolved Oxygen: Combined Laboratory Column‐Breakthrough Experiments and In‐Field Push‐Pull Tests

Meret Aeppli

Electron transfer to peat particulate organic matter (POM) as terminal electron acceptor (TEA) in anaerobic respiration has been hypothesized to lower methane emissions from peatlands by competitively suppressing methanogenesis and/or allowing for anaerobi ...

Proteome adaptations of the organohalide-respiring Desulfitobacterium hafniense strain DCB-2 to various energy metabolisms

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Romain Hamelin, Mathilde Stéphanie Willemin, Florence Armand

IntroductionDesulfitobacterium hafniense was isolated for its ability to use organohalogens as terminal electron acceptors via organohalide respiration (OHR). In contrast to obligate OHR bacteria, Desulfitobacterium spp. show a highly versatile energy meta ...

The capture technology matters: Composition of municipal wastewater solids drives complexity of microbial community structure and volatile fatty acid profile during anaerobic fermentation

Pierre Rossi, Arnaud Michel Gelb

The production of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) represents a relevant option to valorize municipal wastewater (MWW). In this context, different capture technologies can be used to recover organic carbon from wastewater in form of solids, while pre-treatment ...
