This study investigated the biosorption process kinetics and the associated microbial community. Seed sludge from the aeration tank of a wastewater treatment plant in Singapore was acclimated with synthetic wastewater formulated to contain colloidal (ca. 40%) and dissolved COD (Chemical Oxygen Deman...
