Process removal nutrients, especially nitrogen – ammonia in municipal wastewater treatment is a challenger of design and operate wastewater treatment plant. Nowadays in Vietnam, technology SBR has been wide applied in biological wastewater treatment but the concentration of nitrogen – ammonia in treated water cannot achieve the discharge standard. For the purpose to reach the Vietnamese Standard A, the modification of SBR has been added the anoxic phase into operated cycle to create the denitrification’s environment and enhance performance of ammonia – nitrogen removal in municipal wastewater treatment at present and in the near future. The results of experiment shows that, the efficiency of N – NH4 removal in reactors sustainable in range 75 – 80% with the nitrogen loadings rate from 0.07 – 0.25 kg N – NH4/kg sludge/d. However, in 3 hours of anoxic phase, the value of specific denitrification rate is 0.10 – 0.15 kg N – NO3/kg sludge/d with the organic loadings rate in range 0.3 – 1.0 kg BOD/kg sludge/d and can reach the maximum is 0.2 kg N – NO3/kg sludge/d when the organic loadings rate increase to 2.0 kg BOD/kg sludge/d.

The possibility of increasing the efficiency of municipal wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) operation by changing the flow diagram of biological wastewater treatment in aeration tanks at minimum expenses for their reconstruction is shown in the paper on the example of one of the regional centres of Ukraine. The technology of nitri-denitrification of wastewater according to the flow diagram of the two-stage modified Ludzak-Ettinger process is offered for the considered conditions. The distribution of wastewater flows and internal nitrate recycling between the individual stages of this flow diagram has been optimized in order to minimize the residual content of total nitrogen in the treated effluents. Computer dynamic modelling of biochemical processes has proved the high efficiency and reliability of the flow diagram proposed by the authors.

In the municipal wastewater treatment plant in Gdansk a biological treatment technology allowing removing of nutrients was launched recently. This will result in increasing of the volume of sludge from 27.3 t d.m./d now to about 45 t d.m./d in the near future. The analysis of various possibilities of sludge utilization was made. It was concluded that incineration of the sludge seems to be the most promising method, while the possibilities of application of sludge in agriculture, forestry or to land reclamation are limited. Therefore it is suggested that 90% of sludge should be incinerated and the remaining 10% - stabilized with lime and applicated to land reclamation. The ahses generated during the incineration of sludge should be deposited at the municipal waste dump, with possible phosphorus extraction in the future.

The removal and mechanism of ammonia nitrogen and total nitrogen were studie through three-step series of constructed rapid infiltration system by using high ammonia nitrogen domestic sewage of students' living area in a university. The result shows that the removal rate of ammonia nitrogen is 94.47% by using this system, which is 3% higher than conventional rapid infiltration system.The effluent can meet the standard Ⅰ—A of “Discharge standard of pollutants for municipal wastewater treatment plant(GB 18918-2002)”. The amount of ammonium oxidizing bacteria, nitrate oxidizing bacteria, nitrite oxidizing bacteria in this system is higher than that in conventional rapid infiltration system. The correlation between the removal of ammonia nitrogen and ammonium oxidizing bacteria, nitrate oxidizing bacteria, nitrite oxidizing bacteria is significant. The removal rate of total nitrogen is 47.38% by using this system, which is 20.72% higher than that in conventional rapid infiltration system. However, the effluent still can not meet the standard Ⅰ—A of “Discharge standard of pollutants for municipal wastewater treatment plant (GB 18918-2002)”. The amount of denitrifying bacteria in the three-step subsystem increased significantly, which improves the removal of total nitrogen. The correlation between the removal of TN and denitrification bacteria is significant.

The Zhen'an Wastewater Treatment Plant in Foshan City, Guangdong Province, China is a newly built large municipal wastewater treatment plant in south China, situated in the southeast of the famous ancient Foshan City, has a treatment capacity of 100,000 m3/d, serves an area of 32 km2 and 220,000 P. E., occupies 7 ha area with a total investment of 220 million RMB (about 26.5 million U.S dollar), which was put into operation in December 1995. As it is difficult to design and operate the wastewater treatment plant because of the low organic concentration of its influent, the simplified A/O activated sludge process without primary treatment for simultaneous removal of phosphorus and ammonia nitrogen was employed to design the plant, by which, the wastewater is treated very well, with higher effluent quality than the traditional activated sludge process, while the capital and O/M costs are lower than the latter.

In this study, high salinity wastewater was treated by an intermittently aerated membrane bioreactor (IAMBR) and the salinity loadings were set at 35g/L. The activated sludge was inoculated from the municipal wastewater treatment plant. The influent salinity level gradually increased from 0 to 35 g/L with every 5 g/L. With the salt concentration increased to 35 g/L, the performance of IAMBR was significantly affected by higher salinity. The removal efficiencies of the total organic carbon (TOC), ammonia nitrogen (NH4+-N) and total nitrogen (TN) were about 83%, 70% and 51%, respectively. It is indicated that the domestication of activated sludge from municipal wastewater treatment cannot obtain a better performance at high salinity.

In order to develop a new substrate filler for wetland, Fly ash and soil was mixed and modified in different mass ratio, then, static adsorption and seepage purification experiments were carried out to choose four appropriate modified fillers for wetland model experiment. Experimental results showed that when the mass proportion of fly ash and soil was 3:7, the best treatment effect was achieved. While using this modified wetland for wastewater treatment, the removal rate of total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), ammonia nitrogen (NH4-N) and COD was 57.52%, 97.58%, 93.78% and 89.53% respectively. The effluent concentration of TN could meet the priority standard (level B) of Discharge standard of pollutants for municipal wastewater treatment plant (GB18918-2002), while the effluent concentration of TP, NH4-N and COD could meet the priority standard (level A).

For municipal wastewater treatment, space-saving 10m deep activated sludge tanks are an interesting alternative to conventional tanks of shallow construction. Results from pilot tests in the Berlin-Ruhleben WWTP have shown that the biological P-elimination, nutrification and denitrification processes can be implemented as in shallow tanks. However, the activated sludge did not settle satisfactorily. Flotation was implemented in the process for secondary clarification and in the meanwhile has shown to be advantageous. Tests run over a period of some years with the pilot plant have proven the feasibility of this process. Energy requirements for both systems were found to be approximately the same. A cost estimate based on a preplan revealed a 10% advantage in favour of the 10m WWTP with flotation. For these reasons, one 10m WWTP with flotation for secondary clarification and a capacity of 80,000 m3/d will be built in Berlin in the near future.

This paper describes a pilot plant study on the performance of a hybrid small municipal wastewater treatment system consisting of a jet mixed separator(JMS) and upgraded RBC. The JMS was used as a pre-treatment of the RBC instead of the primary clarifier. The treatment capacity of the system was fixed at 100 m3/d, corresponding to the hydraulic loading to the RBC of 117 L/m2/d. The effluent from the grid chamber at a municipal wastewater treatment plant was fed into the hybrid system. The RBC was operated using the electric power produced by a solar electric generation panel with a surface area of 8 m2 under enough sunlight. In order to reduce the organic loading to the RBC, polyaluminium chloride(PAC) was added to the JMS influent to remove the colloidal and suspended organic particles. At the operational condition where the A1 dosage and hydraulic retention time of the JMS were fixed at 5 g/m3 and 45 min., respectively, the average effluent water quality of hybrid system was as follows: TOC=8 g/m3, Total BOD=8 g/m3, SS=8 g/m3, Turbidity=6 TU, NH4-N=7 g/m3, T-P=0.5 g/m3. In this operating condition, electric power consumption of the RBC for treating unit volume of wastewater is only 0.07 KWH/m3.
