Wastewater metagenome
Wastewater contains a diverse array of toxic compounds that cannot be released directly into the environment.Their degradation is mostly carried out by the activated sludge process either at effluent treatment plants, treating wastewater generated by large-scale industries or Common Effluent Treatment Plants. In order to study the microbial community and metabolic genes associated in such degradative pathways wastewater samples amended with ammonia ,hydroxylamine, nitrate and nitite were subjected to nextgeneration sequencing.
