Impact of low and high temperatures on aerobic granular sludge treatment of industrial wastewater.

The goal of this study was to unravel the impact of high and low temperatures (T) on glycogen-accumulating microorganisms (GAOs) which were stimulated in an aerobic granular sludge plant fed with industrial wastewater, which is derived from the cleaning of trucks transporting chocolate and beer. Among GAOs, Candidatus Competibacter (Ca. Competibacter) was the most abundant.
