Abstract:Two lab‐scale anaerobic sequence batch reactors (ASBRs), respectively fed with 5 mg L−1 (R1) and 200 mg L−1 (R2) of sulfate were set up in this study. A mixture of the volatile fatty acids (VFAs) containing acetate and propionate was provided as electron donors. The effects of the influent nitrobenzene (NB) concentrations and the external electron acceptor of sulfate on the operational performance of ASBRs were investigated. The results indicated that NB reduction, sulfate reduction and propionate degradation … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
