TABLE 1.

Specific activities of the different sludge fractions from the reactor at the end of the experiment^a

Sludge fraction	mmol MT degraded g VSS⁻¹ day⁻¹ on MT substrate	mmol CH₄ produced g VSS⁻¹ day⁻¹ on substrate:
Sludge fraction	mmol MT degraded g VSS⁻¹ day⁻¹ on MT substrate	H₂-CO₂	Acetate
Total	1.34	1.68	1.35
Granules	0.134	1.35	1.41
Suspended	2.91	1.40	0.70

Measured at 30°C in batch with MT, H₂-CO₂, or acetate as a substrate. The values are averages of duplicates (sludge).
