Modelling bioaugmentation: Engineering intervention in anaerobic digestion
Bioaugmentation – the addition of specific microorganisms to microbial consortia to obtain specific functions - is a promising method to improve the performance of sub-optimal anaerobic digestion processes and recover methane production.

An investigation of mono-chlorophenol degradation and the bioaugmentation of activated sludge by two pseudomonas putida species [PDF]
The degradation of all three mono-chlorophenols by two Pseudomonas putida species, A(a) and CPI, was investigated Pseudomonas putida A(a) metabolised 4-chlorophenol to completion via the meta-cleavage pathway but the degradation of 2- and 3- chlorophenol

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 ...

Background Bioaugmentation aims to use the capacities of specific bacterial strains inoculated into sites to enhance pollutant biodegradation. Bioaugmentation results have been mixed, which has been attributed to poor inoculant growth and survival in the

The role of cell bioaugmentation and gene bioaugmentation in the remediation of co-contaminated soils. [PDF]
Abstract Soils co-contaminated with metals and organics present special problems for remediation. Metal contamination can delay or inhibit microbial degradation of organic pollutants such that for effective in situ biodegradation, bioaugmentation is necessary. We monitored the degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) or 3-
