In this study, the microbial response of anaerobic sludge digestion to the addition of two classic methanogenic inhibitors (chloroform, 2-bromoethanesulfonate) was investigated. Both the toxicants showed their effectiveness on CH(4) production, whereas the hydrogen responses and acetate accumulations were elicited
