Characterization of microbial granulation process in upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactors

Characterization of microbial granulation process in upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactors

Anaerobic sludge granulation is essentially a microbial selection process through dynamic selection pressures imposed on the sludge. As a result, bacteria which tend to develop aggregates, are preferentially promoted whereas dispersed free cells or loose floes are not. Granulation enables the reacto...
