Abstract excerpt
In this study, time-series anammox functional biofilms were obtained in a lab-scale simultaneous partial nitritation/anammox process for treating high-strength ammonium. The variations in the biofilm phenotypes, community succession, and anammox bacteria abundance over time were evaluated using optical microscopy, 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and qPCR. The result revealed that biofilm has three distinct stages of...
