Structures of microbial communities found in anaerobic batch runs that produce methane from propionic acid--Seeded from full-scale anaerobic digesters above a certain threshold.
TLDR
It is proposed that S. propionica, a syntrophic acetate producer using propionate, might cooperate with aceticlastic methanogens for high methane production during anaerobic digestion that included propionates.About:

Effects of microplastics on wastewater and sewage sludge treatment and their removal: A review
Zhiqi Zhang,Yinguang Chen +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of microplastics on wastewater and sludge treatment and the mechanisms were discussed, and the problems that need to be addressed in the future were pointed out and the key points for future investigation were proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of feeding mode and dilution on the performance and microbial community population in anaerobic digestion of food waste
TL;DR: Microbial communities at various OLRs divulged that the microbial distribution in the continuous feeding of diluted food waste was not significantly perturbed despite the increase of OLR, which was contrast to the unstable distribution in stepwise feeding of undiluted food waste.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ethanol prefermentation of food waste in sequencing batch methane fermentation for improved buffering capacity and microbial community analysis
TL;DR: Kinetic modeling indicated that the EP group had a higher hydrolysis efficiency and shorter lag phase, and the relative abundance of methane-producing bacteria was significantly higher than that of the control group.

Standard methods for the examination of water and wastewater
TL;DR: The most widely read reference in the water industry, Water Industry Reference as discussed by the authors, is a comprehensive reference tool for water analysis methods that covers all aspects of USEPA-approved water analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Profiling of complex microbial populations by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis analysis of polymerase chain reaction-amplified genes coding for 16S rRNA
TL;DR: Analysis of the genomic DNA from a bacterial biofilm grown under aerobic conditions suggests that sulfate-reducing bacteria, despite their anaerobicity, were present in this environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibition of anaerobic digestion process: A review
TL;DR: This review provides a detailed summary of the research conducted on the inhibition of anaerobic processes and indicates that co-digestion with other waste, adaptation of microorganisms to inhibitory substances, and incorporation of methods to remove or counteract toxicants before an aerobic digestion can significantly improve the waste treatment efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling of the Bacterial Growth Curve
TL;DR: Several sigmoidal functions (logistic, Gompertz, Richards, Schnute, and Stannard) were compared to describe a bacterial growth curve by using the model of Schnutes, which is a comprehensive model, encompassing all other models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioassay for monitoring biochemical methane potential and anaerobic toxicity
TL;DR: These relatively simple bioassays can be conducted in most research laboratories without the need for sophisticated equipment and are demonstrated by an analysis of the BMP and ATA of processed samples of peat.
