Abstract This paper reports long-term performance of a two-stage AMX® system with a capacity of 70 m3/d treating actual reject water. An air-lift granulation reactor performed partial nitration (PN-AGR) at an average nitrogen loading rate (NLR) of 3.1 kgN/m3-d, producing an average effluent NO2--N/NH4+-N ratio of 1.04. The average nitrogen removal rate (NRR) of the system was 3.91 kgN/m3-d following an Anammox stage moving bed biofilm reactor (A-MBBR). Although the total nitrogen (TN) concentrations in the reject water fluctuated seasonally, overall nitrogen removal efficiency (NRE) of the two-stage AMX® system was very stable at over 87%. The two-stage AMX® system, consisting of a PN-AGR followed by an A-MBBR, operated at a stable NLR of 1.86 kgN/m3-d (1.64 kgN/m3-d including the intermediate tank), which is 1.8 times higher (1.6 times including the intermediate tank) than other commercialized single-stage partial nitritation/Anammox (PN/A) processes (which operate at a NLR of about 1 kgN/m3-d). The PN-AGR was affected by high influent total suspended solids (TSS) loads, but was able to recover within a short period of 4 days, which confirmed that the two-stage PN/A process is resilient to TSS load fluctuations.

The nitrogen removal and period tending to be stable of anammox under the temperature 37, 35, 30, 25 and 20 were investigated in a packed-bed anammox biofilm reactor which had already operated stably for 300 days. It was found that the highest NRR(nitrogen removal rate)-75.4% and the shortest variation period of effluent concentration-4h was obtained at 37 °C while the opposite results of the lowest NRR of 48.7% and the longest period of 8h was appeared at 20°C; The inhibition effect at high temperature was investigated: the nitrogen removal rate decreased at the temperature of more than 40°C and drop rapidly to 10% when the temperature increased closed to 60°C. The results of the experiments above showed that the nitrogen removal of anammox can be greatly influent by temperature: from 33 to 37°C was the suitable temperature; the NRR decreases under 30°C and the capable to adapt variation drop with the temperature falling. The NRR decreased under high temperature (more than 40°C) and plenty of anammox died in a short time at 60°C.

A study was conducted regarding the biological nitrogen removal from the livestock and poultry breeding wastewater (LPBWs) using a novel sequencing batch biofilm reactor (SBBR). Nitrogen removal process was studied under three aeration strategies/modes, referred to as MODE 1, 2, and 3. The results showed that MODE 2 (one operation period: instant fill of LPBWs, 3.0 h aeration, 1.5 h non-aeration, 1.5 h aeration, 1.0 h non-aeration and rapid drain of treated LPBWs) performed the best in nitrogen removal. Under MODE 2, the removal efficiencies were as high as 96.1 and 92.1% for NH3-N and TN, respectively. Simultaneous nitrification and denitrification (SND), as well as shortcut nitrification and denitrification are likely to be the two main mechanisms for the nitrogen removal in this study. Nitrifying bateria were not inhibited by heterotrophic bacteria with C/N ratios ranging from 18.1 to 21.4 and DO concentration of 2.0 mg/l. Alternation between aeration and non-aeration played an important role in NO2−-N accumulation.
