Effect of biomass immobilization and reduced graphene oxide on the microbial community changes and nitrogen removal at low temperatures
Abstract The slow growth rate and high optimal temperatures for the anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) bacteria are significant limitations of the anammox processes application in the treatment of mainstream of wastewater entering wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). In this study, we investigate...
