Accelerated performance recovery of anaerobic granular sludge after temperature shock: Rapid construction of protective barriers (EPS) to optimize microbial community composition base on quorum sensing

Longyi Lv et al.

Summary: This study investigated the enhancement of temperature shock resistance in anaerobic granular sludge (AnGS) by regulating quorum sensing (QS) through the addition of N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs). The results showed that the addition of 10 μM AHLs significantly improved the COD removal and methanogenic activity of AnGS, reduced recovery time, and attenuated sludge breakage induced by temperature shock. Exogenous AHLs also increased the concentration of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and promoted the enrichment of major functional bacteria and methanogens in AnGS. The increased EPS provided protection for microbial community optimization and led to rapid recovery of AnGS performance. This study provides new insights into the regulatory mechanisms of AHLs-mediated QS in AnGS.
