Two bench-scale reactors, fed with the secondary effluent of a municipal wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), were used in order to study tertiary nitrification in pure oxygen moving bed biofilm reactors (PO-MBBRs) with patented KMT® media as biofilm carriers. The process allowed to measure very high nitrification rates, both in ammonia limiting conditions (up to 7 gN m−2 d−1; oxygen-to-ammonia nitrogen ratio higher than 3–4 mgO2 (mgN)−1) and in oxygen limiting conditions (up to 8 gN m−2 d−1; oxygen-to-ammonia nitrogen ratio lower than 1–2 mgO2 (mgN)−1). Since the process proved flexible and reliable, it is suitable for full-scale application to municipal WWTPs. Typical application could regard, but is not limited to, tertiary nitrification of secondary effluent from existing high-purity oxygen activated sludge systems designed to achieve only organic carbon removal.

Flotation can be used in municipal wastewater treatment plants in different ways. Since the pollutants in wastewater to such a large extent are associated with particles, a very substantial treatment efficiency can be reached at a very small space, by using flotation in a chemical (or enhanced primary) treatment scheme. This is demonstrated in this paper with reference to results from small, prefabricated chemical plants based on flotation, which are frequently used in Norway. If used in connection with biological plants (for instance for nitrogen removal), the combination of biofilm reactors and flotation is especially advantageous because coagulation/flocculation/flotation can be placed directly after the bioreactor. Results from two such plants in Norway are presented. Recommendations with respect to design and operation of flotation plants in wastewater treatment are given.
