Aerobic granular sludge for efficient biotransformation of chalcogen SeIV and TeIV oxyanions: Biological nutrient removal and biogenesis of Se0 and Te0 nanostructures

Y. Nancharaiah et al.

Summary: The study showed that aerobic granular sludge (AGS) can efficiently remove selenite and tellurite, as well as COD, nitrogen, and phosphorus simultaneously. It also demonstrated that AGS can effectively remove ammonia, total nitrogen, and phosphorus stably in the presence of toxic Se-IV and Te-IV concentrations.

Effects of oxytetracycline on aerobic granular sludge process: Granulation, biological nutrient removal and microbial community structure

S. Nivedhita et al.

Summary: The formation, performance, and microbial community structure of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) were investigated in the presence and absence of oxytetracycline (OTC). The results showed that the addition of OTC promoted the formation of well-settling AGS, but decreased the removal rates of nitrogen and phosphorus. This study is important for understanding the impact of antibiotics on AGS and designing treatment methods for antibiotic-laden wastewaters.

Concurrent tellurite reduction, biogenesis of elemental tellurium nanostructures and biological nutrient removal in aerobic granular sludge sequencing batch reactor

M. Sarvajith et al.

Summary: This study investigated the metabolic potential of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) for simultaneous removal of tellurite, COD, ammonium-nitrogen and phosphorus. The results showed that AGS could efficiently convert tellurite to biogenic elemental tellurium and had good pollutant removal and metal immobilization capabilities. The findings have important implications for metal-laden waste management and metal recovery applications.

Understanding the dependence of start-up and stability of aerobic granule on pH from the perspective of adhesion behavior and properties of extracellular polymeric substances

Zhengwen Li et al.

Summary: By studying the adhesion behavior of EPS on an inorganic surface and the viscoelasticity of the adhesion layer, the study revealed the mechanism of pH variation's influence on the start-up and stability of AGS. It was found that a lower pH value reduced the energy barrier between EPS and the surface, facilitating EPS adhesion and strengthening the gel-strength, enhancing AGS resistance to external disturbance.
