    Abstract:
    A two-sludge anaerobic/anoxic/oxic + nitrification system with simultaneous nitrogen and phosphorus removal was studied for enhanced low-strength wastewater treatment. After 158 days of operation, excellent NH4+-N, chemical oxygen demand (COD) and PO43--P removal (99.0 %, 90.0 % and 92.0 %, respectively) were attained under a low carbon/nitrogen ratio of 5, resulting in effluent NH4+-N, COD and PO43--P concentrations of 0.3, 30.0 and 0.5 mg/L, respectively. The results demonstrate that the anaerobic/anoxic/oxic sequencing batch reactor (A2-SBR) and nitrification sequencing batch reactor (N-SBR) had favorable denitrifying phosphorus removal and nitrification performance, respectively. High-throughput sequencing results indicate that the phosphate-accumulating organisms Dechloromonas (1.1 %) and Tetrasphaera (1.2 %) were enriched in the A2-SBR, while the ammonia-oxidizing bacteria Nitrosomonas (7.8 %) and the nitrite-oxidizing bacteria Nitrospira (18.1 %) showed excellent accumulation in the N-SBR. Further analysis via functional prediction revealed that denitrification is the primary pathway of nitrogen metabolism throughout the system. Overall, the system achieved low carbon and high efficiency nutrient removal.
