Data underlying the publication: Principles for stimulating concurrent selective microbial growth and polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) storage responses for enhanced PHA productivity

Description:The aim of this study was to investigate whether reduced ATP demand, combined with net NADH generation in the conversion of substrates to PHA, correlates with concurrent selective growth response of the PHA-storing fraction in WAS. Furthermore, the study sought to determine if such selective growth significantly enhances PHA productivity in a direct accumulation bioprocess. Outcomes of replicate butyrate direct accumulations were studied with respect to parallel accumulations performed with acetate. Two distinct sources of municipal WAS were evaluated with replicate experiments for relative effects of the substrates on process mass and ATP balances, microbial community developments, and the PHA accumulation performance indicators.<br>This information is being made public as supplementary data for the publications and PhD thesis of Yizhou Xing, and other researchers are encouraged to utilize this data in their work.<br>The data in this dataset was collected in Wetsus, Leeuwarden, the Netherlands between May 2023 and December 2024. <br>This dataset is published under the CC BY (Attribution) license.
