Sludge microbial communities from bioreactor in University of Wisconsin-Madison, WI, USA - FK_LacMBR1_day61_Exp
Sludge collected at day 35 of the lactose/lactic acid conversion experiment 1 in anaerobic membrane bioreactor, conducted at pH 5.5 and 50C with a 50:50 mixture of ultra-filtered milk permeate and acid whey as the feedstock. A hollow fiber membrane was used to separate the microbes from the broth (downstream filtration), allowing to feed the reactor at different rates.
