Elahinik, A. (author), de Clercq, Fleur (author), Pabst, Martin (author), Xevgenos, Dimitris (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), Pronk, M. (author)Industrial wastewater often has high levels of salt, either due to seawater or e.g. sodium chloride (NaCl) usage in the processing. Previous work indicated that aerobic granular sludge (AGS) is differently affected by seawater or saline water at similar osmotic strength. Here we investigate in more detail the impact of NaCl concentrations and...journal article 2024

Sathish, Samyuktha (author)In an aerobic granular sludge (AGS) reactor treating urban wastewater, nutrient removal depends on the availability of carbon source. Domestic wastewater consists of 40-60% of slowly biodegradable complex substrates, out of which proteins form a major fraction. Despite this, little is known about the mechanisms of protein degradation in AGS....master thesis 2021

de Graaff, D.R. (author)Increase in sea level will lead to an increase in salinity in domestic wastewater systems. In order to anticipate its effects on biological wastewater treatment, the impact has to be assessed with lab-scale experiments. Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) is a successful technology for simultaneous removal of organic carbon (COD), nitrogen, and...doctoral thesis 2020

Haaksman, V.A. (author), Mirghorayshi, M. (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), Pronk, M. (author)Operational disturbances in aerobic granular sludge (AGS) systems can result in aerobic availability of readily biodegradable COD (rbCOD). Different from activated sludge, morphological consequences on the short and long term are not well described in literature. This study investigated the effect of incomplete anaerobic uptake of acetate on...journal article 2020
