Functional and structural characterization of polyphosphate-accumulating organisms in aerobic granular biofilms

Arnaud Michel Gelb

The "Aerobic Granular Sludge" (AGS) technology for wastewater treatment is basedon dense microbial biofilm in the form of granular aggregates that have an excellentsettling property allowing high biomass concentrations in bioreactors. This promisingbiologi ...

Influence of Wastewater Composition on the Microbial Communities of Aerobic Granular sludge

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Aline Sondra Adler, Valérie Berclaz, Marie Christelle Horisberger, Eva Reynaert

Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) is an emerging technology offering an alternative wastewater treatment with a reduced footprint compared to conventional activated sludge systems. Basic understanding of AGS processes has mainly been obtained in laboratory-sca ...

The effect of different organic substrates on the microbial communities of aerobic granular wastewater treatment sludge

Aline Sondra Adler

Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) is a promising alternative wastewater treatment to the conven- tional activated sludge system, allowing space and energy savings. This process is particularly suited for biological phosphorus removal, avoiding use of coagulant ...

Organic substrate diffusibility governs microbial community composition, nutrient removal performance and kinetics of granulation of aerobic granular sludge

Christof Holliger, Eva Reynaert

Basic understanding of formation of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) has mainly been derived from labscale systems with simple influents containing only highly diffusible volatile fatty acids (VFA) as organic substrate. This study compares start-up of AGS sys ...

Evolution of microbial communities in aerobic granular sludge during changes in wastewater composition

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Aline Sondra Adler, Valérie Berclaz, Marie Christelle Horisberger

Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) is an emerging technology offering an alternative wastewater treatment with a reduced footprint compared to conventional activated sludge systems. Basic understanding of AGS has mainly been obtained in lab-scale reactors fed w ...
