Microbial community analysis of bacteria aerobic granular sludge and algal-bacterial granular sludge in lab-scale sequencing batch reactors
This project investigates the bacterial and microalgal communities in two types of granular sludge: bacterial granular sludge (BAGS) and algal-bacterial granular sludge (ABGS), cultivated in lab-scale sequencing batch reactors. High-throughput 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing was performed to study bacterial community composition and dynamics, and 18S rRNA sequencing was also conducted to characterize the microalgal communities in ABGS.
