(Wiley, 2007-11-01)The ability to simultaneously measure both biofilm thickness and the mass transfer coefficient of an inert tracer through it provides a powerful method to study biofilm development. In this communication previously published ...
-
(ACS Publications, 2009)Fluorinated organic compounds have widespread applications, and their accumulation in the environment is a concern. Biofilm reactors are an effective technology for the treatment of contaminated wastewater, yet almost no ...

(Elsevier, 2009-06-15)A simple mathematical model was developed to investigate the utilization rate of a self-inhibitory substrate in idealised biofilm reactors operating with either counter-diffusion or co-diffusion of oxygen and phenol. This ...

(Wiley, 2009-08-01)Biofilm-related research using 96-well microtiter plates involves static incubation of plates indiscriminate of environmental conditions, making oxygen availability an important variable which has not been considered to ...
-
(Wiley, 2010-12)Aims: The purpose of this study was to develop a system that would allow biofilms to be cultivated under strictly defined conditions in terms of dissolved oxygen, fluid shear and to assess whether the method was suitable ...

(ACS, 2008-03-15)Diffusion of the electron acceptor is the rate controlling step in virtually all biofilm reactors employed for aerobic wastewater treatment. The membrane-aerated biofilm reactor (MABR) is a technology that can deliver ...
-
(Wiley, 2008-04-15)The potential of the membrane aerated biofilm reactor (MABR) for high-rate bio-oxidation was investigated. A reaction-diffusion model was combined with a preliminary hollow-fiber MABR process model to investigate reaction ...

Factors influencing 4-fluorobenzoate degradation in biofilm cultures of Pseudomonas knackmussii B13 (Elsevier, 2011-05)Membrane aerated biofilm reactors (MABRs) have potential in wastewater treatment as they permit simultaneous COD minimisation, nitrification and denitrification. Here we report on the application of the MABR to the removal ...
-
(American Society for Microbiology, 2009-05)Comparisons between the physiological properties of Pseudomonas fluorescens biofilm cells grown in a tubular biofilm reactor and planktonic cells grown in a chemostat were performed. Fluoroacetate was the sole carbon source ...

(Elsevier, 2013-05-29)Detachment is a critically important aspect of biofilm processes; it impacts not only on the characteristics of the biofilm itself but also has general implications for the dissemination of pathogenic bacteria and the ...
