Chen, L.M. (author), Keisham, Sunanda (author), Tateno, Hiroaki (author), van Ede, J.M. (author), Pronk, M. (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), Lin, Y. (author)Bacteria can synthesize a diverse array of glycans, being found attached to proteins and lipids or as loosely associated polysaccharides to the cells. The major challenge in glycan analysis in environmental samples lies in developing high-throughput and comprehensive characterization methodologies to elucidate the structure and monitor the...journal article 2023

Ali, Muhammad (author), Singh, Yogesh (author), Fortunato, Luca (author), Rehman, Zahid Ur (author), Manjunath, Sarvajith (author), Vrouwenvelder, J.S. (author), Pronk, M. (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), Saikaly, Pascal E. (author)This study describes a novel integration of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) with a gravity-driven membrane (GDM) system at a pilot scale with a treatment capacity of approximately 150 L per day to treat raw domestic wastewater. The treatment performance and energy consumption of the AGS-GDM system were compared to the neighboring full-scale...journal article 2023

Haaksman, V.A. (author), Schouteren, M. (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), Pronk, M. (author)There is a growing interest to implement aerobic granular sludge (AGS) in existing conventional activated sludge (CAS) systems with a continuous flow-through configuration. The mode of anaerobic contact of raw sewage with the sludge is an important aspect in the adaptation of CAS systems to accommodate AGS. It remains unclear how the...journal article 2023

van den Berg, L. (author), Toja Ortega, S. (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), de Kreuk, M.K. (author)Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) is an advanced biofilm-based technology for wastewater treatment. Diffusion of substrates into the granules is a key aspect of this technology. Domestic wastewater contains soluble organic substrates of different sizes that could potentially diffuse into the granules. In this study, the relation between the...journal article 2022

van den Berg, L. (author), Kirkland, Catherine M. (author), Seymour, Joseph D. (author), Codd, Sarah L. (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), de Kreuk, M.K. (author)Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) technology allows simultaneous nitrogen, phosphorus, and carbon removal in compact wastewater treatment processes. To operate, design, and model AGS reactors, it is essential to properly understand the diffusive transport within the granules. In this study, diffusive mass transfer within full-scale and lab-scale...journal article 2020
