Microbial Communities Shape Chemical Fate During Wastewater Treatment: Implications for Low-Cost Treatment Optimization

This dataset includes chemical and microbial analysis data from three conventional biological wastewater treatment utilities. It contains raw non-targeted liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) data in various formats, including MZxml, timeseries, wiff, wiff2, and wiff.scan, as well as annotated 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing data in fastq format. The dataset provides comprehensive documentation of each file type, sample names, as well as the methods used for data collection and processing. This data is intended to support further research on chemical degradation and microbial catalyzers in wastewater treatment systems. For specific details on the experimental setup, sampling protocols, and data analysis methods, please refer to the associated manuscript. (https://doi.org/10.1021/acsestwater.5c00660).
