Microbiological Composition of the Biofilm on the Metal Surface of Sewage Constructions

The microbiological composition of the biofilm, formed on the surface of sewage treatment constructions grids, and the seasonal variation in the number of its main components were examined. The strain Ch.5 was isolated and identified from the enrichment culture of sulfate-reducing bacteria. It was classified as belonging to Desulfomicrobium genus according to its physiological and biochemical characteristics.
