  • Title: Influence of the wastewater composition on denitrification and biological P-removal in the S-DN-P process: (c) dissolved and undissolved substrates.
    Author: Choi HJ, Choi CH, Lee SM, Tiwari D.
    Journal: J Environ Sci (China); 2009; 21(8):1074-9. PubMed ID: 19862920.
    Abstract:
    The denitrification and P-removal in the sorption-denitrification-P-removal (S-DN-P) process were carried out under various wastewater compositions. It is noted that P-removal largely depends on the wastewater composition as well to the quantity of the substrates present in wastewater fraction. Three different wastewater fractions are obtained as: raw wastewater, dissolved wastewater (obtained with filtration using 0.45 microm filter), and undissolved wastewater (i.e., infiltrate obtained by above filtration). The ratio of P-release/COD(tolal)-consumption clearly inferred that undissolved wastewater possess very low value i.e., 0.0008 followed by raw wastewater 0.008 and dissolved wastewater 0.03. When this ratio was nearby 0.01, enhanced P-removal was observed. Moreover, the ratio of P-uptake to NO3(-)-N decomposition for raw wastewater was two times for dissolved wastewater. Interestingly, it was observed that the P-removal and denitrification depend not only on the dissolved substrates but also the undissolved substrates present in the wastewater. The result of the P-removal obtained with this S-DN-P process did not show a big difference of 36%, 34% and 30%, respectively, for raw, dissolved and undissolved wastewater.
