Biological phosphorus removal during high-rate, low-temperature, anaerobic digestion of wastewater
Keating, Ciara; Chin, Jason P.; Hughes, Dermot; Manesiotis, Panagiotis; Cysneiros, Denise; Mahony, Therese; Smith, Cindy J.; McGrath, John W.; O'Flaherty, Vincent (Frontiers Media, 2016-03-03)We report, for the first time, extensive biologically mediated phosphate removal from wastewater during high-rate anaerobic digestion (AD). A hybrid sludge bed/fixed-film (packed pumice stone) reactor was employed for ... -
Impact of trichloroethylene exposure on the microbial diversity and protein expression in anaerobic granular biomass at 37°C and 15°C
Siggins, Alma; Enright, Anne-Marie; Abram, Florence; Botting, Catherine; O'Flaherty, Vincent (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2012-09-14)Granular biomass from a laboratory-scale anaerobic bioreactor trial was analysed to identify changes in microbial community structure and function in response to temperature and trichloroethylene (TCE). Two bioreactors ... -
Opportunistic bacteria dominate the soil microbiome response to phenanthrene in a microcosm-based study
Storey, Sean; Ashaari, Mardiana Mohd; Clipson, Nicholas; Doyle, Evelyn; de Menezes, Alexandre B. (Frontiers Media, 2018-11-21)Bioremediation offers a sustainable approach for removal of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from the environment; however, information regarding the microbial communities involved remains limited. In this study, ...
