Antiseptic chlorhexidine in activated sludge : biosorption, antimicrobial susceptibility, and alteration of community structure

Antiseptic chlorhexidine in activated sludge : biosorption, antimicrobial susceptibility, and alteration of community structure

Chlorhexidine (CHX) is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial, which may pose environmental health risks. This study examined the removal potential and the mechanisms regulating the fate of CHX in activated sludge (AS). Bioreactors inoculated with AS removed 74 ± 8% and 81 ± 6% of CHX at steady state while...
