In order to accelerate the cultivation of micro-aerobic granular sludge for domestic sewage treatment, an expanded granular sludge bed (EGSB) reactor seeded with excess sludge was employed. It was found that micro-aerobic granules can form and grew compact within one month, and remained stable during the later operation, the mature cultivation had average particle size of 0.81mm, and 64% of the granules had settling velocity above 35m•h-1. Moreover, excellent COD and nitrogen removal were obtained. For hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 5h, as the recirculation ratio and oxygenation rate were set at 6.5 and 0.25g•L-1d-1respectively, COD removal ranged in 80%-91%, leaving effluent COD below 50mg•L-1. The removal efficiency of ammonium and total nitrogen (TN) were 72%-89% and 76%-87%, respectively with effluent concentration down to 3-12mg•L-1and 5-14mg•L-1. Results showed that the efficiency of simultaneous nitrogen removal was much influenced by effluent recirculation and oxygenation rate in micro-aerobic EGSB reactor.

Aerobic granular sludge grown in a sequential batch reactor was proposed as an alternative to anaerobic processes for organic matter and nitrogen removal from swine slurry. Aerobic granulation was achieved with this wastewater after few days from start-up. On day 140 of operation, the granular properties were: 5 mm of average diameter, SVI of 32 mL (g VSS)−1 and density around 55 g VSS (Lgranule)−1. Organic matter removal efficiencies up to 87% and nitrogen removal efficiencies up to 70% were achieved during the treatment of organic and nitrogen loading rates (OLR and NLR) of 4.4 kg COD m−3 d−1 and of 0.83 kg N m−3 d−1, respectively. However, nitrogen removal processes were negatively affected when applied OLR was 7.0 kg COD m−3 d−1 and NLR was 1.26 kg N m−3 d−1. The operational cycle of the reactor was modified by reducing the volumetric exchange ratio from 50 to 6% in order to be able to treat the raw slurry without dilution.
