Can microaeration and hydraulic retention time steer anaerobic microbiomes toward efficient linear alkylbenzene sulfonate degradation?
The sustainable treatment of surfactant-rich wastewater in anaerobic systems is often hindered by the biochemical recalcitrance of linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) and its inhibitory effects on methanogenesis. This study investigated controlled microaeration under two hydraulic retention time (HRT) and organic loadi...
