Influence of particle size distribution on anaerobic degradation of phenol and analysis of methanogenic microbial community

Sludge morphology considerably affects the mechanism underlying microbial anaerobic degradation of phenol. Here, we assessed the phenol degradation rate, specific methanogenic activity, electron transport activity, coenzyme F₄₂₀ concentration, and microbial community structure of five phenol-degrading sludge of varying particle...
