摘要
The extraction of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) including polysaccharides and proteins from aerobic biofilms using either EDTA or NaOH was enhanced by alternating current especially within the first 0.5 h of current application. At 60 mA and 50 Hz, the average extraction rate of polysaccharides within the first 0.5 h using EDTA was 8.3 mg h(-1) g TS-1 (TS: total solid, dry wt), 1.6 times of that without current, and that of proteins was 2.5 mg h(-)1 g TS-1, 1.2 times higher. The extraction of polysaccharides was maximal at around 500 Hz while that of proteins was less affected by increasing the current frequency.
