Kamath, P. (author), Rubio-Rincón, F. J. (author), Brdjanovic, Damir (author), Lopez-Vazquez, C. M. (author)Photo-activated sludge (PAS) system aims to utilize microalgae to deliver oxygen for bacterial respiration, eliminating the need for external aeration. However, research on the treatment potential of PAS systems in the removal of nutrients is limited. In this context, a research study was devised to evaluate the possibility of developing a...journal article 2024

(author), Brdjanovic, Damir (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), Rubio-Rincón, Francisco J. (author)Ca. Accumulibacter was the predominant microorganism (relative FISH bio-abundance of 67 ± 5%) in a lab-scale sequential batch reactor that accomplished enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) while using glucose and acetate as the carbon sources (1:1 COD-based ratio). Both organic compounds were completely anaerobically consumed. The...journal article 2023

(author), Brdjanovic, Damir (author)The concentration of sulphate present in wastewater can vary from 10 to 500 mg SO<sub>4</sub> <sup>2−</sup>/L. During anaerobic conditions, sulphate is reduced to sulphide by sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB). Sulphide generation is undesired in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Previous research indicated that SRB are inhibited by the...journal article 2017
