Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) comprises an aggregation of microbial cells in a tridimensional matrix, which is able to remove carbon, nitrogen and phosphorous as well other pollutants single bioreactor under the same operational conditions. During past decades, feasibility implementing AGS wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) for treating sewage using fundamentally sequential batch reactors (SBRs) has been studied. However, technology SBRs several disadvantages. For instance, it can present...
Abstract This paper presents a brief survey of studies conducted at the Laboratory Applied and Environmental Microbiology University Tuscia on possible biotechnological valorisation olive mill wastewater (OMW) using fungi. Besides being serious environmental problem, OMW might be resource owing to presence added value products (e.g. antioxidants) simple complex sugars as basis for fermentation processes. To this end technical feasibility various fungal fermentative processes either obtain...
MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry in association with the MALDI BioTyper 3.1 software has been evaluated for identification and classification of 45 Arctic bacteria isolated from Kandalaksha Bay (White Sea, Russia). The high reliability this method already demonstrated, clinical microbiology, by a number studies showing attribution concordance other credited analyses. Recently, it employed also branches microbiology controversial performance. phyloproteomic results reported study were validated...
Abstract Background Marine environments are the widest fonts of biodiversity representing a resource both unexploited or unknown microorganisms and new substances having potential applications. Among microbial products, exopolysaccharides (EPS) have many physiological functions practical Since EPS production by bacteria is too scarce for use only few species known their high levels production, search producers paramount importance. Many marine bacteria, that produce to cope with strong...
Aerobic granular sludge reactors usually operate in sequential batch mode, although this configuration limits the treatment of large volumes wastewater, and they require a storage system. To implement technology at full-scale, it would be necessary to design simple compact continuous-flow bioreactor able treat larger wastewater. In study, four aerobic single-chamber (R1, R2, R3 R4) were designed operated lab scale evaluate select that achieves high organic matter removal performance while...
The Antarctic fungus Lecanicillium muscarium CCFEE 5003 is one of the most powerful chitinolytic organisms. It can produce high level enzymes in a wide range temperatures (5-30°C). Chitinolytic have lot applications but their industrial production still rather limited and no cold-active are produced. In view massive L. enzymes, its cultivation bioreactors mandatory. Microbial and/or metabolite sometime not possible must be verified optimized for exploitation. Agitation aeration important...
