Exploratory analysis of the microbial community profile of the municipal solid waste leachate treatment system: A case study.

TL;DR: In this article , an exploratory analysis of the microbial community profile of the MSW leachate treatment system in the municipality of Osório (Brazil) was conducted, where a comprehensive analysis of chemical parameters, isotopic signature and microbial profile data were applied to monitor the changes in the structure of the microorganisms throughout the leachates attenuation process and to describe the relationship between microbial community structure and the attenuation of chemical and isotopic parameters.
