Unraveling the microbial and functional mechanisms driving rapid algal-bacterial granular sludge formation in mariculture wastewater

Puntos clave

• Granular sludge formation is driven by algal-bacterial interactions in mariculture wastewater, enhancing nutrient removal.
• Key evidence shows a significant increase in granular sludge density within weeks of implementation.
• Observational analysis in wastewater management reveals the role of microbial mechanisms in sludge development.
• This highlights the potential for innovative wastewater treatment strategies based on microbial interactions.
