Resumo: Activated sludge process, the most commonly used system for biological wastewater treatment, is driven by a community of microorganisms that play a key role in the conversion of the organic matter and removal of nutrients from wastewater. In this artificial ecosystem, filamentous and floc-forming bacteria co-exist in a dynamic equilibrium. However, filamentous bacteria overgrowth lead to a decrease of performance of the plant by causing two well-known phenomena: bulking and/or foaming. Sphaerotilus natans is a filamentous bacterium that can cause or contribute to the malfunction of these systems by leading to bulking occurrence. Bacteriophages are regarded as possible novel treatment against the filamentous overgrowth. In this work, the isolation and preliminary characterization of a new lytic bacteriophage against S. natans are described. Results clearly indicate the potential effect of this bacteriophage for future wastewater treatment system management.
