Elucidating the complex hydrolysis and conversion network of xanthan-like extracellular heteropolysaccharides in waste activated sludge fermentation

The hydrolysis of structural extracellular polymeric substances (St-EPS) is considered a major limiting step in the anaerobic fermentation of waste activated sludge (WAS). However, the degradation of heteropolysaccharides, characterized by complex monomers of uronic acids and neutral saccharides in...
