Question

True or False. Sulfur-reducing bacteria can cause corrosion in neutral anoxic enclosed waste water tanks. Bacteria used to help break down fiber and cellulose in anaerobic environments are found in anaerobic reactors of tertiary wastewater treatment. Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria are found on the outside of granules used in AST. Phosphorus-accumulating organisms are used in mines in enhanced biological phosphorus removal. Chemolithotrophs are used in leaching through oxidation of materials in aquatic environments.
