This investigation aims to monitor a strategy for biological nutrient removal (nitrogen and phosphorus) in a Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) treating domestic wastewater. For this, the performance of an SBR with nitrification, denitrification, carbon oxidation and phosphorus removal is evaluated. During this study the influent used was pre-settled domestic wastewater from Bennekom-Municipal Treatment Plant (The Netherlands). The average influent COD, TKN and phosphate were 443 mg COD/1, 71 mg N/1 and 7 mg P/1, respectively. Acetic acid was added to this influent from a feed solution, to increase the COD by an extra 100 mg COD/1. In this study, a pilot plant SBR was operated during 5 months in order to have: i) a mixed culture able to perform carbon oxidation, nitrification, denitrification and biological phosphorus removal and ii) long term assessment of the biological nitrogen and phosphorus removal processes. Pilot plant SBR consists of two cylindric polystyrene vessels, the first with total volume of 0.35 m3 (Reactor 1) and the second with total volume of 1.3 m3 (Reactor 2). The effluent had, in average, phosphate concentration lower than 1 mg P/1 and nitrogen concentration lower than 12 mg N/1.

It was occasionally found that a significant nitrogen loss in solution under neutral pH value in a sequencing batch reactor with a single-stage oxic process using synthetic wastewater, and then further studies were to verify the phenomenon of nitrogen loss and to investigate the pathway of nitrogen removal. The result showed that good performance of nitrogen removal was obtained in system. 0–7.28 mg L−1 ammonia, 0.08–0.38 mg L−1 nitrite and 0.94–2.12 mg L−1 nitrate were determined in effluent, respectively, when 29.85–35.65 mg L−1 ammonia was feeding as the sole nitrogen source in influent. Furthermore, a substantial nitrogen loss in solution (95% of nitrogen influent) coupled with a little gaseous nitrogen increase in off-gas (7% of nitrogen influent) was determined during a typical aerobic phase. In addition, about 322 mg nitrogen accumulation (84% of nitrogen influent) was detected in activated sludge. Based on nitrogen mass balance calculation, the unaccounted nitrogen fraction and the ratio of nitrogen accumulation in sludge/nitrogen loss in solution were 14.6 mg (3.7% of nitrogen influent) and 0.89, respectively. The facts indicated that the essential pathway of nitrogen loss in solution in this study was excess nitrogen accumulation in activated sludge.
