Morphological study of biomass during the start-up period of a fixed-bed anaerobic reactor treating domestic sewage

This work focused on a morphological study of the microorganisms attached to polyurethane foam matrices in a horizontal-flow anaerobic immobilized biomass (HAIB) reactor treating domestic sewage. The experiments consisted of monitoring the biomass colonization process of foam matrices in terms of th...
