    Abstract:
    This study presented a novel simultaneous partial nitritation (PN), denitratation and anammox (SPNDA) process for treating ammonium and nitrate wastewater. Results indicated that SPNDA could achieve a great total nitrogen (TN) removal of 97.6 ± 0.5%, leading to effluent TN concentration of only 3.4 mg/L. Mass balance indicated that nitrogen removal rates via anammox, simultaneous nitrification and denitrification were 96.7% and 3.3%, respectively. Extended aerobic duration (12 h) and low dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration (0.15 mg/L) could improve ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) activity and maintain PN stability. The stable suppression of nitrite-oxidizing bacteria activity was attributed to the low DO (0.15 mg/L) and high free ammonia (3.63 mg/L) in SPND. Besides, the nitrogen conversion mechanisms for SPNDA were revealed based on a typical operational cycle. Microbial analysis showed that AOB (Nitrosomonas) and partial denitrifying bacteria (Thauera and Denitratisoma) coexisted with anammox bacteria (Candidatus Brocadia and Candidatus Anammoxoglobus) in the mixotrophic bio-community.
