bioreactor sludge metagenome
The EGSB reactor was seeded with an inoculum from the anoxic zone of the activated sludge (MLVSS: 21.073 g/L) tank at the Jiangxinzhou Urban Sewage Treatment Plant, Jiangsu, China. The influent synthetic wastewater was prepared to simulate typical fertilizer and nuclear industry wastewater (Dhamole et al., 2007). Composite samples were taken from the upper, middle and bottom part of the reactor.
