Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Gavin Collins"
- Gavin Collins' recent research focuses on microbial communities in wastewater treatment systems, exploring their responses to environmental cues, granulation mechanisms, and contaminants removal efficiency from liquid digestates through innovative methods like constructed wetlands.
- His studies highlight the ecological interactions and efficiencies of methanogenic granules, including their morphological development and the influence of metal stress on microbial byproducts, contributing to better management strategies in biotechnological applications.
- In addition to wastewater treatment, Collins investigates the dynamics of microbial communities related to aquatic health, as seen in his work on gill diseases in farmed Atlantic salmon, showcasing the interplay between environmental factors and microbial diversity in aquaculture settings.
