Abstract

Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) consists of a microbial consortium that has an important role in wastewater treatment. This study investigates AGS microorganisms cultivated in a laboratory-scale sequencing batch reactor. Metagenomic sequencing was conducted using PacBio and Illumina, resulting in 759 metagenome-assembled genomes, 331 of which remained after dereplication.

Keywords: PacBio; accumulibacter; aerobic granular sludge; biofilms; illumina; metagenome-assembled genomes; wastewater.
