  • More about Engineering Granular Microbiomes: Bacterial Resource Management for Nutrient Removal in Aerobic Granular Sludge Wastewater Treatment Systems


The book reports on ecological engineering of granular sludge processes for nutrient removal in compact wastewater treatment plants, providing insights into microorganisms and metabolisms in wastewater microbiomes and microbial ecology principles for wastewater treatment. It covers interdisciplinary research of systems microbiology and environmental biotechnology, with economic assessment, microbiome science and engineering, mixed-culture biotechnological processes, multifactorial experimental designs, laser scanning microscopy, molecular microbial ecology, bioinformatics methods, numerical ecology workflows, and mathematical modelling. The findings are integrated into the state of the art of biological wastewater treatment and provide a guideline for microbial resource management in granular sludge processes to support knowledge utilization in engineering practice.
