Modelling the metabolism of the polyphosphate-accumulating organism Candidatus Accumulibacter
Wastewater resulting from human activities must be treated to minimize the impact on the receiving ecosystems. One of such potential impacts in lakes and other water bodies is eutrophication, an excessive increase in their nitrogen and phosphorus content.
