This study investigates the influence of organic matter and extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) on rheological properties dewaterability diverse sludge types. Eight waste activated eleven anaerobically digested samples were collected from full-scale wastewater treatment plants across Australia. Rheological measurements performed at native uniform total solids concentration (TS) 4.5 %. The fraction (VS/TS) significantly increased yield stress (τy) consistency index (k), decreased (p <...
The study of dissolved organic matter (DOM) presents a significant challenge for environmental analyses and the monitoring wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs).This is particularly true tracking recalcitrant to biodegradation (rDOM) compounds, which generated during thermal pretreatment sludge.This aims develop analytical chemometric methods differentiate melanoidins from humic acids (HAs), two components rDOM that require at various stages processes due their distinct biological effects.The...
Two previously unknown modes of biomineralization observed in the presence Carboxydothermus hydrogenoformans are presented. Following addition NaHCO3 and formation an amorphous calcium phosphate precipitate a DSMZ medium inoculated with C. hydrogenoformans, two distinct crystalline solids were recovered after 15 30 days incubation. The first these occurred as micrometric clusters blocky, angular crystals, which associated bacterial biofilm. second solid 30-50 nm nanorods that found scattered...
Carboxydothermus hydrogenoformans is a thermophilic anaerobic strain most widely known for its ability to produce hydrogen (H2) when grown on carbon monoxide (CO). Although relatively well studied, growth characterization pyruvate has never been assessed. The present work fully characterizes of the bacterium as sole source. C. demonstrated rate 0.03 h-1, with consumption ranging between 0.21 and 0.48 mol · g-1 volatile suspended solid d-1. A lag phase was also observed switching from CO....
