Community structure and activity dynamics of nitrifying bacteria in a phosphate-removing biofilm.
The microbial community structure and activity dynamics of a phosphate-removing biofilm from a sequencing batch biofilm reactor were investigated with special focus on the nitrifying community. O(2), NO(2)(-), and NO(3)(-) profiles in the biofilm were measured with microsensors at various times during the nonaerated-aerated reactor cycle. In the aeration period, nitrification was oxygen limited...
متن کاملExperimental and simulation analysis of community structure of nitrifying bacteria in a membrane-aerated biofilm.
Until now, only few attempts have been made to assess biofilm models simulating microenvironments in a biofilm. As a first step, we compare the microenvironment observed in a membrane aerated biofilm (MAB) to that derived from a two-dimensional computational model with individual ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB) embedded in a continuum EPS matrix. Gradients ...
متن کاملCommunity Structure and In Situ Activity of Nitrifying Bacteria in Phragmites Root-Associated Biofilms
The amount of oxygen released by Phragmites roots and the community structure and in situ activity of nitrifying bacteria in the root biofilms were analyzed by the combined use of 16S rRNA gene-cloning analysis, quantitative PCR (qPCR) assay and microelectrodes. Axial and radial O₂ microprofiles were obtained for individual roots of Phragmites in a horizontal flow reactor fed with artificial me...
متن کاملCorrelationship of Vertical Distribution for Ammonia Ion, Nitrate Ion and Nitrifying Bacteria in a Fixed Bed Nitrifying Biofilm
The vertical distributions of nitrifying bacteria in aerobic fixed biofilm were investigated to evaluate the relationship between nitrification performance and microbial community at different HRT. Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) and portable ion selective microelectrode system were adopted to analyze microbial communities and ions profiles according to the biofilm depth. Cilia media p...
متن کاملEffect of alkalinity type and concentration on nitrifying biofilm activity.
The effect of alkalinity on nitrifying biofilm activity was determined by collecting 21-day-old biofilm samples from the top of a full-scale nitrifying trickling filter and evaluating bench-scale nitrate plus nitrite generation rates at (1) various initial carbonate alkalinity concentrations and (2) with four types of available alkalinity: carbonate only, phosphate only, phosphate plus hydroxid...
