Impact on nitrifiers of full-scale bioaugmentation [PDF]
AbstractNitrifiers are the slowest growing bacteria used in conventional biological wastewater treatment. Furthermore, their growth rate is seriously hampered by low temperature. As a result, the volume needed for nitrification dominates the volume of the biological reactors at a wastewater treatment plant.

Plasmid-Mediated Bioaugmentation for the Bioremediation of Contaminated Soils [PDF]
Bioaugmentation, or the inoculation of microorganisms (e.g., bacteria harboring the required catabolic genes) into soil to enhance the rate of contaminant degradation, has great potential for the bioremediation of soils contaminated with organic ...

RECENT DEVELOPMENT OF BIOAUGMENTATION METHODS FOR TOBACCO WASTEWATER TREATMENT [PDF]
In the production of cigarettes, a lot of tobacco waste, with nicotine, goes into the environment. Hence, there is a need for an economic and efficient method to diminish the discharge of hazardous materials from tobacco wastewater.

Bioaugmentation for Groundwater Remediation: an Overview
In situ bioremediation (ISB) is an increasingly popular remediation technology, largely due to its relatively low cost. Often ISB can be implemented solely by stimulating the native microorganisms, but in some cases the organisms that can degrade a target pollutant are either absent or their numbers are not sufficient for timely or efficient treatment.

A Model for Bioaugmented Anaerobic Granulation [PDF]
Anaerobic granular sludge comprises of highly organized microorganisms with a sophisticated metabolic network. Such aggregates can withstand storage, temperature fluctuations and changes in the substrate supplied for anaerobic digestion. However, substrate change leads to long adaptation of granular consortia, creating lags in the reactor operations ...

Bioaugmentation for enhanced denitrification in a labscale treatment system
The effect of bioaugmentation was investigated in a predenitrification lab-scale wastewater treatment system. The aim was to investigate the difference between two approaches to bioaugmentation: one in which suspended overnight culture was used as ...

Phytoremediation, Bioaugmentation, and the Plant Microbiome
Understanding plant biology and related microbial ecology as a means to phytoremediate soil and groundwater contamination has broadened and advanced the field of environmental engineering and science over the past 30 years. Using plants to transform and degrade xenobiotic organic pollutants delivers new methods for environmental restoration ...

Effect of fertilizer formulation and bioaugmentation on biodegradation and leaching of crude oils and refined products in soils [PDF]
The effects of soil characteristics and oil types as well as the efficacy of two fertilizer formulations and three bioaugmentation packages in improving the bioremediation of oil-contaminated soils were assessed as a means of ex situ treatment selection ...
