“…In full-scale AGS plants, settling time is for practical reasons longer, around 30 min, which gives a mixture of granules and floccular sludge (Pronk et al 2015 ). In a previous study, selective removal of sludge was applied; a fraction consisting of both very light and very dense granules was removed to retain a wider size range of granules in the reactor (Henriet et al 2016 ). This lead to an improved phosphorus removal, since very large and dense granules which are saturated with phosphorus and cannot take up more were removed.…”

“…In spite of the lower sludge concentration, the nitrogen and phosphorus removal rates increased, but the granules became less stable. Henriet et al ( 2016 ) managed to operate an SBR with a H/D ratio of 1.8 by selecting for PAOs by removal of the poorly granulated fraction of the biomass. Recently, AGS in continuous systems has been successfully operated in lab-scale reactors inoculated with activated sludge from a full-scale biological nutrient removal plant (Devlin and Oleszkiewicz 2018 ).…”

“…The microbial communities of AGS systems fed with 100%-VFA WW are well described in literature, and dominated by Gammapropteobacteria, in particular, the PAO Candidatus ( Ca.) Accumulibacter and the GAOs from the Competibacteraceae family (Weissbrodt et al., 2013; He et al., 2016a; Henriet et al., 2016). Most of these bacteria have a metabolism adapted to VFA uptake under anaerobic conditions.…”

“…Other methods used for wastewater treatment include, for example, artificial wetlands [41]. Another method is the biological removal of P using polyphosphate-accumulating bacteria [42]. This microbial process is called enhanced biological phosphorus removal and has, in practice, been incorporated into numerous activated sludge treatment plants [43].…”
