This chapter focuses on the synthesis and catalytic applications of microbes-based nanomaterials for the wastewater treatment and decontamination.doi:10.1016/B978-0-12-821881-5.00015-5Pitambri ThakurGunjan MukherjeeWastewater Treatment
Microbes are usually bacterial and fungal strains that convert organic matter into water, CO2, and ammonia gas or other by-products such as alcohol, glucose, and nitrate. Additionally, the microbes may detoxify toxic inorganic matter. In the treatment process air is added to the wastewater in ...

These results suggest that the gut microbes may migrate into WWTPs via influent and then grow or thrive in AS to play a role in the wastewater treatment process. This situation also hints us that species of some OTUs can be enriched start or even directly isolated from the corresponding EMP ...
Based on PCR-DGGE technology,the microbial community in wastewater treatment system was analyzed.The total DNA of microbial from anaerobic activated sludge of different period was extracted respectively.The 16S rDNA genes V4-V6 region were amplified specifically and separated by DGGE.The edge banding ...
Seven full-scale biological wastewater treatment systems located in the Polar Arctic Circle region in Finland were investigated to determine their Archaea, Bacteria and Fungi community structure, and their relationship with the operational conditions of
Actually, the city is known to have one of the largest wastewater treatment plants in the world. Because the wastewater used by the large number of citizens flows into WWTP through the pipeline, the influent can contain variety of microbes as well as organic compounds. Since the microorganisms ...
(Farghali et al.2021). Biological pretreatment of seaweed is a low energy, promising alternative to other energy-intensive pretreatments, and it does not produce any inhibitory by-products during the anaerobic digestion process; therefore, we recommend additional research on the biological treatment of...
microbes and hinder the operation of the treatment plant due to their toxic nature. The effects of heavy metals depend on their type, concentration, and contact time with microbes. Therefore the biological system sometimes may not tolerate the effect of heavy metals in wastewater and stop working...
Wastewater Treatment: Cutting-Edge Molecular Tools, Techniques and Applied Aspects reports new findings in existing molecular biology strategies, including their limitations, challenges and potential application to remove environmental pollutants through advancements made in cutting edge tools. In addition, the...
