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 ...

Microbially-mediated methylation of arsenic (As) plays an important role in the As biogeochemical cycle, particularly in rice paddy soils where methylated As, generated microbially, is translocated into rice grains. The presence of the arsenite (As(III)) m ...

Characterization of phosphorus species distribution in waste activated sludge after anaerobic digestion and chemical precipitation with Fe3+ and Mg2+

Jie Zhang, Lin Li

Given the great concern about phosphorus (P) resource depletion, it's promising to recover P from waste activated sludge (WAS) especially for agricultural application. To this end, it's necessary to understand the P speciation and fractionation within the ...

Imaging the aerobic granular sludge microbial community using light-sheet fluorescence micros

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Arnaud Michel Gelb, Karen Gemayel

One of the aims of wastewater treatment is the removal of phosphorus before the water is discharged into the environment. Since phosphorus concentrations in wastewater exceed the requirement of bacterial growth, biological phosphorus removal is based on th ...

Impact of iron reduction on the metabolism of Clostridium acetobutylicum

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Karin Lederballe Meibom, Zhaleh Hosseini, Cornelia List

Iron is essential for most living organisms. In addition, its biogeochemical cycling influences important processes in the geosphere (e.g., the mobilization or immobilization of trace elements and contaminants). The reduction of Fe(III) to Fe(II) can be ca ...

Scale-up of phosphate remobilization from sewage sludge in a microbial fuel cell

Christos Comninellis, Fabian Fischer, Alain-François Grogg, Marc Sugnaux, Thomas Egli, Géraldine Zufferey

Phosphate remobilization from digested sewage sludge containing iron phosphate was scaled-up in a microbial fuel cell (MFC). A 3 litre triple chambered MFC was constructed. This reactor was operated as a microbial fuel cell and later as a microbial electro ...
