The aim of this article is to present a new biological aerated filter (BAF) for nitrogen removal based on simultaneous nitrification and denitrification. Contrary to the systems which integrate both an aerated and a non-aerated zone to allow complete nitrogen removal in one compact or two different units (pre-denitrification and nitrification), this upflow BAF system is based on the principle of simultaneous nitrification and denitrification since the filter is completely aerated. The denitrification process is possible due to the diffusion effect which dominates biofilm processes. The real time aeration control allows us to maintain a low dissolved oxygen value (0.5 to 3 mg O2/l). In this case, the biofilm will not be fully (or less) penetrated with oxygen and denitrification will be carried out in a large part of the biofilm. Therefore, nitrification and denitrification is running simultaneously in different depths of the biofilm. By using 50% less air this BAF gave the same results (less than 20mg TN/l) on pilot plant as a classical nitrification and denitrification BAF (Toettrup et al., 1994). Less recirculation was necessary to achieve the same denitrification.

Nitrification And Denitrification

A membrane bioreactor (MBR) was developed to achieve nitrogen removal by combining nitrification and denitrification conditions in one reactor. The activated sludge was alternated between aerobic and anoxic conditions using peristaltic pump. The biomass concentration and floc morphological properties were observed to be similar in anoxic and aerobic compartments. However, the homogeneous properties of the activated sludge did not lead to the failure of oxygen gradient formation in the reactor. Due to the position of the air diffuser, an anoxic compartment at the bottom and an aerobic compartment in the upper part of the reactor were formed after 40 days. The average total nitrogen (TN) removal efficiency was then observed to increase to 77%. The microbial characterization using polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) analysis, as well as the specific nitrogen utilization rate measurements, indicated that the nitrogen removal in the reactor occurred via nitrification and denitrification processes.

This paper concerns simultaneous nitrification and denitrification in a completely mixed bio-reactor with partially and fully submerged rotating biological contactors. The bio-reactor is designed to cause the nitrification and denitrification in partially and fully submerged biofilms, respectively. An experimental investigation was made into the effect of organic material and ratio of influent organic carbon to ammonia nitrogen concentrations(C/N ratio) on the efficiency of simultaneous nitrification and denitrification in the bio-reactor. Settled municipal wastewater and synthetic wastewater containing ammonia nitrogen and organic material such as acetate, ethylene-glycol, phenol and poly-vinyl-alcohol(PVA) were fed into the experimental units. A biofilm dominated by nitrifiers developed on the partially submerged contactors, while a biofilm dominated by heterotrophs developed on the fully submerged contactors. A micro-aerobic environment was formed and biological denitrification occurred in the submerged biofilm. In the municipal wastewater treatment where the influent C/N ratio was around 3.5, the maximum nitrogen removal efficiency was about 60 %. Acetate and ethlene-glycol were effectively used as the organic source of the denitrification. The ability to aerobically degrade PVA was induced by phenol. Once the bacteria inhibiting the biofilm gained the ability to degrade PVA, PVA became an effective organic source of the denitrification.

Abstract A simultaneous nitrification and denitrification (SND) bioaugmention system with Pseudomonas sp. HJ3 inoculated was established to explore the potential of simultaneous phenol and nitrogen removal in coal gasification wastewater (CGW). When the concentration of influent chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total phenols (TPh) was 1,765.94 ± 27.43 mg/L and 289.55 ± 10.32 mg/L, the average removal efficiency of COD and TPh at the stable operating stage reached 64.07% ± 0.76% and 74.91% ± 0.33%, respectively. Meanwhile, the average removal efficiency of NH4+-N and total nitrogen (TN) reached 67.96% ± 0.17% and 57.95% ± 0.12%, respectively. The maximum SND efficiency reached 83.51%. Furthermore, SND bioaugmentation performed with good nitrification tolerance of phenol shock load and significantly reduced toxic inhibition of organisms. Additionally, the microbial community analysis indicated that Pseudomonas sp. HJ3 was the predominant bacterium in the SND bioaugmentation system. Moreover, the indigenous nitrogen removal bacteria such as Thauera, Acidovorax and Stenotrophomonas were enriched, which further enhanced the nitrogen removal in the SND bioaugmentation system. The results demonstrated the promising application of SND bioaugmentation for enhancing simultaneous phenol and nitrogen removal in CGW treatment.
