Full-scale sequencing batch reactor (SBR) for domestic wastewater: Performance and diversity of microbial communities

► Real operational conditions (low dissolved oxygen) of a full-scale SBR. ► Characterization of microbial diversity in a full-scale SBR to improve operational conditions by molecular techniques. ► The greater activity found by DPAO microorganism (DPAO/PAO was 70%) not necessarily leads to phosphorous removal.
