In this study, a lab-scale Partial Nitritation Sequencing Batch Reactor (PNSBR) was implemented for treating high-ammonium old landfill leachate to yield an appropriate NO2—N/ NH4+-N ratio from 1/1 to 1.32/1 mixture as a pretreatment for subsequent Anammox. The objective of this study was to determine the optimal hydraulic retention time (HRT) at different influent ammonia concentrations for 210 days. The experimental results showed that with the influent ammonia concentrations of 500, 1000, 1500 and 2000 mg/L, HRT is 12 h, 21 h, 30 h and 48 h, respectively. The range of free ammonia (FA) concentration from 17 to 44 mg/L completely inhibited nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB) for long time operation. The COD removal efficiency was very low (6±2) %.

Abstract Landfill leachate was treated using non-powdered activated carbon sequencing batch reactor (NPAC-SBR) and powdered activated carbon (PAC) augmented SBR (PAC-SBR) processesto examine Langmuir and Freundlichadsorption isothermsin the SBR technique.Response surface methodology (RSM) was used for the experimental design and statistical analysis.Based on the obtained results, the maximum adsorption capacitiesof ammonia nitrogen (NH3-N), color, and chemical oxygen demand (COD) for the Langmuir adsorption isotherm were 5.63 mg/g, 25.30 Pt.Co/g, and 13.21 mg/g,respectively, whereas for the Freundlichadsorption isotherm, thesewere 6 mg/g, 46.29Pt.Co/g, and 15.41 mg/g, respectively.Generally, Freundlich isotherm values for NH3-N, color, and COD were higher than Langmuir isotherm values.The NH3-N adsorption on PAC was lower than the color and COD adsorptions because a great part of NH3-Nwas biologically removed in the SBR process.Increasing aeration rate and contact times in the SBR processes increased the adsorption isotherms of NH3-N, color, and COD on PAC
