Microthrix parvicella; wastewater treatment; lipids and biodiesel
Résumé :
[en] The current trend of more circular use of resources have driven the new practices in wastewater treatment that propose a transition from taking wastewater as just a waste to wastewater as a source of resources. Thus, lipids accumulated by the microbial biomass represent a potentially important stock of resources for biodiesel production. Within this study, a lipid accumulating bacterium Microthrix parvicella (M. parvicella), was studied using a molecular biology approach (16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing) and GC-MS/MS to identify its occurrence and its accumulated lipids and thus, their potential use for biodiesel production.
