A difficult coexistence: resolving the iron-induced nitrification delay in groundwater filters

F. Corbera-Rubio, E. Kruisdijk, S. Malheiro, M. Leblond, L. Verschoor, M. van Loosdrecht, M. Laureni, D. van Halem

This study identifies Fe3+ flocs as the main cause of nitrification delay in groundwater filters by inhibiting NH4+ oxidation, showing the inhibition is reversible through backwashing.

Shifting to biology promotes highly efficient iron removal in groundwater filters

S. Mueller, F. Corbera-Rubio, F. Schoonenberg-Kegel, M. Laureni, M. van Loosdrecht, D. van Halem

This study shows that mild aeration in sand filters promotes biological iron removal, achieving faster oxidation rates and higher water yields compared to intensive aeration.

Microbiome, resistome and mobilome of chlorine-free drinking water treatment systems

D. Calderon-Franco, F. Corbera-Rubio, M. Cuesta-Sanz, B. Pieterse, D. de Ridder, M. van Loosdrecht, D. van Halem, M. Laureni, D. G. Weissbrodt

This study analyzes antibiotic resistance determinants in chlorine-free drinking water treatment plants using metagenomics and quantitative PCR, finding reduced ARGs and MGEs despite increases in disinfection sub-units.

Meta-omics profiling of full-scale groundwater rapid sand filters explains stratification of iron, ammonium and manganese removals

F. Corbera-Rubio, M. Laureni, N. Koudijs, S. Muller, T. van Alen, F. Schoonenberg, S. Luecker, M. Pabst, M. van Loosdrecht, D. van Halem

The paper uses metaproteomics to analyze full-scale groundwater filters and shows how microbial protein expression stratifies with nutrient availability, explaining iron, ammonium, and manganese removal patterns.
