Title: Achieving advanced nitrogen removal in a novel partial denitrification/anammox-nitrifying (PDA-N) biofilter process treating low C/N ratio municipal wastewater. Author: Lu W, Zhang Y, Wang Q, Wei Y, Bu Y, Ma B. Journal: Bioresour Technol; 2021 Nov; 340():125661. PubMed ID: 34364081. Abstract: For achieving mainstream anammox, a novel partial denitrification/anammox-nitrifying (PDA-N) biofilter process to treat municipal wastewater was developed. This process achieved a total inorganic nitrogen (TIN) removal efficiency of 81%, with an average effluent TIN of 7.31 mg·L-1, when the ratio of influent chemical oxygen demand (COD) to TIN was 3.2. Approximately 97% of the TIN was removed by anammox in the PDA biofilter. Nitrite was provided by partial denitrification for anammox. Partial denitrification was driven by Thaurea in the middle and lower regions of the PDA biofilter, while anammox was mainly driven by Candidatus Brocadia in the middle and upper regions. When treating real municipal wastewater, the TIN was efficiently removed in the PDA-N biofilter, with the effluent TIN of 5.96 mg·L-1. Anammox played a primary role, achieving approximately 98% of the TIN removal. Compared to the traditional nitrification/denitrification process, this process can economize organic carbon demand and oxygen consumption.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
