Substrate Pre-loading Influences Initial Colonization of GAC Biofilter Biofilms

Microbial community composition and stability affect pollutant removal for biological/granular activated carbon (BAC/GAC) processes. Here, we pre-loaded the organic carbon substrates sucrose, lactose, and Lysogeny Broth (LB) medium onto new GAC prior to use and then tested whether this substrate pre...
