Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • DNA
  • Gene

Bacteria, Microbiology, Adhesion, Plasmid and Hydrophilic interaction chromatography are his primary areas of study. The various areas that Malte Hermansson examines in his Bacteria study include Environmental chemistry, Mercury, Flocculation and Activated sludge. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Microbiology, narrowing it down to issues related to the Biofilm, and often Polysaccharide and Extracellular.

Among his Adhesion studies, you can observe a synthesis of other disciplines of science such as Biophysics and Chemical physics. His Chemical physics research incorporates themes from Microbial adhesion, Nanotechnology and Cell membrane. His research in the fields of Genetic transfer overlaps with other disciplines such as Air water interface.

His most cited work include:

  • The DLVO theory in microbial adhesion (662 citations)
  • The transient phase between growth and nongrowth of heterotrophic bacteria, with emphasis on the marine environment. (246 citations)
  • Effects of ionic strength on bacterial adhesion and stability of flocs in a wastewater activated sludge system. (202 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His scientific interests lie mostly in Bacteria, Microbiology, Biofilm, Environmental chemistry and Sewage treatment. His work in the fields of Bacteria, such as Marine bacteriophage, overlaps with other areas such as Adhesion. His work in Microbiology addresses subjects such as Mutant, which are connected to disciplines such as Bacterial outer membrane.

His Biofilm study also includes

  • Ecology that intertwine with fields like Computational biology,
  • Food science most often made with reference to Microbial population biology. His research integrates issues of Environmental engineering, Nitrification and Corrosion in his study of Environmental chemistry. His study on Activated sludge is often connected to Ammonium as part of broader study in Wastewater.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Bacteria (32.35%)
  • Microbiology (28.43%)
  • Biofilm (22.55%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Microbial population biology (15.69%)
  • Sewage treatment (18.63%)
  • Biofilm (22.55%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Malte Hermansson mainly focuses on Microbial population biology, Sewage treatment, Biofilm, Ecology and Activated sludge. In his work, 16S ribosomal RNA, Bacteria, Mixed culture and Biotechnology is strongly intertwined with Food science, which is a subfield of Microbial population biology. His studies link Wastewater with Sewage treatment.

In his study, Moving bed biofilm reactor, Nitrospira, Heterotroph and Microbiology is strongly linked to Anammox, which falls under the umbrella field of Wastewater. His work carried out in the field of Microbiology brings together such families of science as Sludge dewatering, Nitrite and Ammonia. His studies in Activated sludge integrate themes in fields like Microorganism, Chemical oxygen demand and Pollutant.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Microbial Population Dynamics and Ecosystem Functions of Anoxic/Aerobic Granular Sludge in Sequencing Batch Reactors Operated at Different Organic Loading Rates. (60 citations)
  • The mechanisms of granulation of activated sludge in wastewater treatment, its optimization, and impact on effluent quality. (56 citations)
  • Community structure of partial nitritation-anammox biofilms at decreasing substrate concentrations and low temperature. (36 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Bacteria
  • DNA
  • Gene

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Sewage treatment, Activated sludge, Population, Granulation and Wastewater. His Sewage treatment research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Anammox, Microbiology and Bacteria. Malte Hermansson interconnects Ecology and Effluent in the investigation of issues within Activated sludge.

His work on Community structure and Ecosystem as part of general Ecology research is frequently linked to Water flow and Nestedness, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. His Effluent study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biomass and Settling. His studies deal with areas such as Food science, Biofilm, Sludge dewatering, Ammonia and Nitrite as well as Wastewater.
