Abstract

The data in this article mainly present the sequences of activated sludge from a full-scale municipal wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) carrying out simultaneous nitrogen and phosphorous removal in Beijing, China. Data include the operational conditions and performance, dominant microbes and taxonomic analysis in this WWTP, and function annotation results based on SEED, Clusters of Orthologous Groups (COG), and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) databases. Sequencing data were generated by using Illumina HiSeq. 2000 platform according to the recommendations of the manufacturer. The sequencing data have been deposited in MG-RAST server (project ID: mgm4735473.3). For more information, see “Unraveling microbial structure and diversity of activated sludge in a full-scale simultaneous nitrogen and phosphorus removal plant using metagenomic sequencing” by Guo et al. (2017) [1].

Summary

Data accessibility

Graph and metagenomic sequences DNA sequencing using Illumina HiSeq. 2000 platform. Metagenomic sequencing was performed using Illumina HiSeq. 2000 platform according to the recommendations of the manufacturer. Data will be useful for investigating microbial community structure in wastewater treatment plants carrying out simultaneous nitrogen and phosphorus removal. Sequencing data can be used to identify core microbes by comparing to similar data sets generated for simultaneous nitrogen and phosphorus removal plants with different treatment processes. Data on microbial community and functional profiles within activated sludge from a full-scale municipal wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) carrying out simultaneous nitrogen and phosphorous removal (SNPR) are presented [1]. Data include the operational conditions and performance of this WWTP (Table 1), dominant microbes and taxonomic analysis (Table 2 and Fig. 1), and function annotations based on SEED, Clusters of Orthologous Groups (COG), and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) databases Data include the operational conditions and performance of this WWTP (Table 1), dominant microbes and taxonomic analysis (Table 2 and Fig. 1), and function annotations based on SEED, Clusters of Orthologous Groups (COG), and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) databases (Figs. 2–5)
