Metagenomes and metagenome-assembled genomes from microbial communities in a biological nutrient removal plant operated at Hamptons Road Sanitation District (HRSD) with high and low dissolved oxygen conditions

Aeration is a major cost at biological nutrient removal (BNR) plants. We report on microbial communities in a pilot-scale BNR system before and after a dissolved oxygen transition from 2.5 to 0.2 mg/L implemented over 18 months. Four PacBio metagenomes and 316 metagenome-assembled genomes are announced.
