Low nitrogen removal efficiency caused by the lack of carbon source in low C/N ratio wastewater restricts the wastewater biological treatment. Advances in wastewater biological treatment at low C/N ratio are reviewed in the paper from three aspects, including modifying traditional biological nitrogen removal process, developing novel biological nitrogen removal processes and optimizing traditional carbon source and developing new types of carbon sources. The mechanisms, advantages, and applications of these processes are also summarized and analyzed.

A novel post-denitrification system fed by carbon source from primary sludge (PS) was used for enhancing biological nitrogen removal (BNR) of low C/N wastewater. This system included one anoxic/oxic (AO) reactor and a special reactor for simultaneous sludge fermentation and denitrification (Sifeden). Ammonia was nitrified to nitrate in AO and then the nitrate was reduced to dinitrogen in Sifeden , into which PS was added intermittently. Results showed that this system had high performance on nitrogen removal. Total nitrogen (TN) removal efficiency was higher than 85% and the effluent TN≤10mg/L in the condition of influent C/N≤2. In Sifeden, volatile fatty acid (VFA) produced from PS fermentation provided electron donor for nitrate reduction, and PS was preliminarily stabilized simultaneously. Oxidation-Reduction Potential (ORP) had a significant correlation with the denitrification performance. TN removal efficiency could be further improved if adopting proper PS addition strategy according to the ORP profiles.

A plant treating fish processing wastewaters was monitored over one year to prove the practical advantages achievable through the internal production of RBCOD. A clear improvement of the effluent quality with lower NOx-N content and the disappearance of fluctuation of nitrates were obtained. Changing the equalization management from aerobic to anoxic, it was possible to utilise battered waste as internal carbon source. Plant reliability was confirmed during the entire observation period. The plant broke down twice electromechanically and it required more than 24 days to restore normal plant conditions. The advantages obtained overcome the risks associated with the new scheme adopted.
