- Thesis
- Development of redox-mediated microbial assays for the rapid characterisation and assessment of wastewater toxicity and oxygen demand.
- Description
- My PhD focuses on the development and optimisation of rapid mediated toxicity and BOD bioassays, known as FM-Tox and FM-BOD respectively. The principle objective is to incorporate activated sludge microorganisms as the biocatalyst component with a view towards its application for routine monitoring of wastewater influent and effluent.
