Bioengineering options and strategies for the optimization of anaerobic digestion processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a complex biological process, and the microbial diversity and dynamics within the reactor needs to be understood and considered when process optimization is sought after.

Application of Synthetic Microbiome to Bioaugmentation of Pesticide Pollution [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
The issue of soil contamination from chemical pesticides is a pressing concern in today’s world. The excessive use of these chemicals can lead to their accumulation in soil over time, posing risks to both the environment and human health.

Bioaugmentation with immobilized endophytic Penicillium restrictum to improve quorum quenching activity for biofouling control in an aerobic hollow-fiber membrane bioreactor treating antibiotic-containing wastewater

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
The effects of bioaugmentation with immobilized Penicillium restrictum on the removal efficiency of sulfamethoxazole (SMX), erythromycin (ERY) and tetracycline (TC) antibiotics as well as membrane biofouling was studied using hollow-fiber membrane ...

Vertebrate Hosts as Islands: Dynamics of Selection, Immigration, Loss, Persistence, and Potential Function of Bacteria on Salamander Skin. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Skin bacterial communities can protect amphibians from a fungal pathogen; however, little is known about how these communities are maintained. We used a neutral model of community ecology to identify bacteria that are maintained on salamanders by ...

Bioaugmentation of Soil Contaminated with Azoxystrobin [PDF]

open access: yesWater, Air, & Soil Pollution, 2016
The presence of fungicides in the natural environment, either resulting from deliberate actions or not, has become a serious threat to many ecosystems, including soil. This can be prevented by taking appropriate measures to clear the environment of organic contamination, including fungicides.

Plasmid-Mediated Bioaugmentation for the Bioremediation of Contaminated Soils

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
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 ...

Rotating biological contactors for wastewater treatment - A review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Rotating biological contactors (RBCs) for wastewater treatment began in the 1970s. Removal of organic matter has been targeted within organic loading rates of up to 120 g m−2 d−1 with an optimum at around 15 g m−2 d−1 for combined BOD and ammonia removal.
