Wastewater Treatment and Molecular Biological Tools White Paper

Summary:

Molecular biological tools offer innovative solutions for monitoring microbial communities that play essential roles in wastewater treatment. This white paper explores how qPCR, next generation sequencing, and whole genome sequencing can be used to monitor microorganisms that are important for anaerobic digester management, nitrogen cycling, enhanced biological phosphorus removal, bulking and foaming, and microbial source tracking of fecal contamination.
