Description Microbial capacities drive waste stabilization and resource recovery in environmental
friendly processes. Depending on the composition of waste, a stress-mediated selection
process ensures a scenario that generates a specific enrichment of microbial community.
These communities dynamically change over a period of time while keeping
the performance through the required utilization capacities. Depending on the environmental
conditions, these communities select the appropriate partners so as to
maintain the desired functional capacities. However, the complexities of these organizations
are difficult to study. Individual member ratios and sharing of genetic intelligence
collectively decide the enrichment and survival of these communities. The
next-generation sequencing options with the depth of structure and function analysis
have emerged as a tool that could provide the finer details of the underlying bioprocesses
associated and shared in environmental niches. These tools can help in identification
of the key biochemical events and monitoring of expression of associated
phenotypes that will support the operation and maintenance of waste management
systems. In this chapter, we link genomic tools with process optimization and/or management,
which could be applied for decision making and/or upscaling. This review
describes both, the aerobic and anaerobic, options of waste utilization process with
the microbial community functioning as flocs, granules, or biofilms. There are a number
of challenges involved in harnessing the microbial community intelligence with associated
functional plasticity for efficient extension of microbial capacities for resource
recycling and waste management. Mismanaged wastes could lead to undesired genotypes
such as antibiotic/multidrug-resistant microbes.
