Composition and distribution of extracellular polymeric substances in aerobic flocs and granular sludge.
Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) were quantified in flocculent and aerobic granular sludge developed in two sequencing batch reactors with the same shear force but different settling times. Several EPS extraction methods were compared to investigate how different methods affect EPS chemical characterization, and fluorescent stains were used to visualize EPS in intact samples and 20-mum ...
متن کاملExtraction of Structural Extracellular Polymeric Substances from Aerobic Granular Sludge
To evaluate and develop methodologies for the extraction of gel-forming extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), EPS from aerobic granular sludge (AGS) was extracted using six different methods (centrifugation, sonication, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), formamide with sodium hydroxide (NaOH), formaldehyde with NaOH and sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) with heat and constant mixing). AGS was ...
متن کاملThe acid soluble extracellular polymeric substance of aerobic granular sludge dominated by Defluviicoccus sp.
A new acid soluble extracellular polymeric substance (acid soluble EPS) was extracted from an acetate fed aerobic granular sludge reactor operated at 35 °C. Acid soluble EPS dominated granules exhibited a remarkable and distinctive tangled tubular morphology. These granules are dominated by Defluviicoccus Cluster II organisms. Acetic acid instead of the usually required alkaline extraction medi...
متن کاملAquaNereda Aerobic Granular Sludge Technology Aerobic Granular Sludge
This advanced nutrient removal process can reduce footprint up to 75% and energy up to 50% when compared to conventional activated sludge systems. One of the defining characteristics of the granule is rapid settling which in turn allows for an increase in the biomass concentration. The granules are comprised of true biomass and do not require carriers. The layered microbial community that forms...
متن کاملThe Removal Effect of Pollutants and Components in Extracellular Polymeric Substances from Aerobic Granular Sludge in Simultaneous Removal of Organic Matter and Ammonia Nitrogen
Biological processes, such as activated sludge and granular sludge are widely used to remove organic pollutants as well as inorganic pollutants, such as metallic elements1–3, which are known to be potentially toxic, and impact the performance of biological waste treatment processes4. Granular sludge is a dense aggregate of microorganisms, minerals, and microbial produced compounds such as extra...
