Removal System

An enhanced nitrogen removal system of constructed wetland has been established, and for which kind of nitrogen containing wastewater was suitable to be treated by such enhanced system was also investigated. The results show that when co-controlled by intermittent aeration and carbon source addition, dissolved oxygen concentration and process carbon-nitrogen ratio in enhanced system were improved, meanwhile TN removal capability was enhanced. For wastewater that contains low concentration of carbon and nitrogen, or low concentration of carbon but high concentration of nitrogen, or high concentration of carbon and nitrogen, or high concentration of carbon and low concentration of nitrogen, the average removal efficiency of COD, TN, NH4+-N, NO3--N and TP in enhanced system were 68.1%, 78.2%, 70.8%, 86.7% and 71.2%, of which the purification capability was significantly better than that of the control system. The enhanced system is especially suitable for treatment of wastewater that contains low concentration of carbon and high nitrogen.

With nitrite or nitrate nitrogen as electron acceptor in the high salt conditons, halophilic denitrifying bacteria can transfer nitrite or nitrate to nitrogen, thereby purifying the high-salt wastewater. Halophilic denitrifying bacteria play an important role in the carbon and nitrogen removal of saline wastewater, such as petroleum, chemical industry, seafood processing and seafood farming. This article dissussed halophilic denitrifying bacteria screening, the main types and the corresponding morphological characteristics, then we focused on the research progress of main factors of halophilic denitrifying bacteria’s growth and nitrogen removal. Finally put forward the current problems of the research and development trend of halophilic denitrifying bacteria.

The Relationship

The aim of this study is to identify the relationship between the rate of electricity generation and the rate of carbon and nitrogen removal from wastewater using different MFC processes.  Determining whether the generation of electricity using MFC process could be related to the rate of pollutant removal from wastewater is noteworthy. Three types of MFC process configurations include the batch mode (SS), a continuous flow of influent with ferricyanide (PF) as the oxidizing agent and a continuous flow of influent with oxygen (PU) as the oxidizing agent. The highest quantity of electricity generation was achieved using the continuous flow mode with ferricyanide (0.833 V), followed by the continuous flow mode with oxygen (0.589 V) and the batch mode (0.352 V). The highest efficiency of carbon removal is also achieved by the continuous flow mode with ferricyanide (87%), followed by the continuous flow mode with oxygen (51%) and the batch mode (46%). Moreover, the continuous flow mode with ferricyanide produced the highest efficiency for nitrogen removal (63%), followed by the continuous flow mode with oxygen (54%) and the batch mode (27%).

In this study, an intermittent aeration type activated sludge process that is fed continuously is evaluated for nitrogen and organic carbon for facilities in rural areas, which are characterized by small scale, low loading rate and automatic operation. Anoxic and aerobic conditions can be regulated alternatively by intermittent aeration for biological nitrogen removal. It is proved that an intermittent aeration cycle of 90 min, with aeration/anoxic mixing periods of 25~30 min/65~60 min in Tank 1, and 30~45 min/60~45 min in Tank 2, and a DO control set at 0.6~1 mg/L during the aeration period are required for satisfactory treatment performance. Under these conditions, a stable effluent water quality with BOD ≤ 5 mg/L, CODMn ≤ 8 mg/L, Nitrogen ≤ 3 mgN/L, SS ≤ 5 mg/L and transparency ≥ 80 cm can be achieved. The solids retention time in aerobic condition was 10~25 d, which is sufficient for nitrification.

Abstract A micro-pressure swirl reactor (MPSR) was developed for carbon and nitrogen removal of wastewater, in which dissolved oxygen (DO) gradient and internal circulation could be created by setting the aerators along one side of the reactor, and micro-pressure could be realized by sealing most of the top cap and increasing the outlet water level. In this study, velocity and DO distribution in the reactor was measured, removal performance treating high-concentration wastewater was investigated, and the main functional microorganisms were analyzed. The experiment results indicated that there was stable swirl flow and spatial DO gradient in MPSR. Operated in sequencing batch reactor mode, distinct biological environments spatially and temporally were created. Under the average influent condition of chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentration of 2,884 mg/L and total nitrogen (TN) of 184 mg/L, COD removal efficiency and removal loading was 98% and 1.8 kgCOD/(m3·d) respectively, and TN removal efficiency and removal loading reached up to 90% and 0.11 kgTN/(m3·d) respectively. With efficient utilization of DO and simpler configuration for simultaneous nitrification and denitrification, the MPSR has the potential of treating high-concentration wastewater at lower cost.
