Removal Efficiencies

The microalgal-bacterial granular sludge (MBGS) process is expected to meet the future requirements of municipal wastewater treatment technology for decontamination, energy consumption, carbon emission and resource recovery. However, little research on the performance of the MBGS process in outdoor treatment was reported. This study investigated the performance of the MBGS system in treating municipal wastewater under natural alternate day and night conditions in late autumn. The results showed that the average removal efficiencies of Chemical oxygen demand (COD), NH4+-N and PO43−-P on daytime before cooling (stage I, day 1−4) could reach 59.9% ± 6.8%, 78.1% ± 7.9% and 61.5% ± 4.5%, respectively, while the corresponding average removal efficiencies at night were 47.6% ± 8.0%, 56.5% ± 17.9% and 74.2% ± 7.6%, respectively. Due to the dramatic changes in environmental temperature and light intensity, the microbial biomass and system stability was affected with fluctuation in COD and PO43−-P removal. In addition, the relative abundance of filamentous microorganisms (i.e., Clostridia and Anaerolineae) decreased, while Chlorella maintained a dominant position in the eukaryotic community (i.e., relative abundance > 99%). This study can provide a theoretical basis and technical support for the further engineering application of the MBGS process.

Polluted Waters

Experience from advanced municipal wastewater treatment plants and recovery of polluted waters are described for the last ten years in Sweden. Except in municipalities with large recipients, the urban population is served by treatment plants with combined biological and chemical treatment. Most of these plants are post-precipitation plants. Several modified operational modes have been developed in order to improve the removal efficiencies of pollutants and to reduce the costs. Results are presented on the recovery of specially investigated lakes with a lowered supply of total phosphorus and organic matter.

Увеличение удельной биохимической мощности сооружений с применением так называемых гранулированных активных илов является одним из перспективных направлений развития технологий биологической очистки сточных вод. Гранулированные илы это микробные биоценозы, специализирующиеся на разложении и минерализации веществ, содержащихся в сточных водах. Отличие от обычных илов обусловлено двумя важными факторами: строением основной структурной единицы гранулированного ила гранулы, и высокой скоростью осаждения (до 20 м/ч). Это позволяет создавать в биореакторах очистки сточных вод дозы ила до 10 г/л. Представлены результаты разработки первой в РФ биотехнологии очистки городских сточных вод с применением гранулированного активного ила. Технология реализована на объектах АО Мосводоканал . Технология аэробной биологической очистки в реакторе последовательнопериодического действия с последовательной нитриденитрификацией и восходящим потоком сточной воды позволяет обеспечить качество очищенной воды, соответствующее нормативам предельно допустимых концентраций для сброса в водоемы рыбохозяйственного назначения. Техникоэкономическое сравнение разработанной технологии с технологией удаления биогенных элементов в аэротенке проточного типа показало, что затраты жизненного цикла сооружений с частично гранулированным активным илом в 1,4 раза меньше затрат традиционной технологии биологической очистки (для производительности 1000 м3/сут).Increasing the specific biochemical capacity of the facilities using the socalled granular activated sludge is one of the promising areas for the development of biological wastewater treatment technologies. Granular sludge is microbial biocenosis specializing in the decomposition and mineralization of substances present in wastewater. The main distinction from regular sludge is due to two important factors: the composition of the basic structural unit of granular sludge granules, and a high sedimentation rate (up to 20 m/h). This provides for developing sludge doses of up to 10 g/l in bioreactors of wastewater treatment. The results of the development of the first biotechnology in Russia for municipal wastewater treatment of using granular activated sludge are presented. The technology has been implemented at the facilities of Mosvodokanal JSC. The technology of aerobic biological treatment in a sequencing batch reactor with sequential nitridenitrification and an upward flow of wastewater provides for the quality of effluent that meets the standards for maximum permissible concentrations for discharge into fishery bodies. Technical and economic comparison of the developed technology with the technology of removing nutrients in flowthrough aeration tank showed that the life cycle costs of the facilities with partially granulated activated sludge are 1.4 times less than the costs of traditional biological treatment technology (for a capacity of 1000 m3/day).

An on-site study on the operational performance of a combined eco-system of ponds and SF constructed wetland for municipal wastewater treatment and reclamation/reuse in Donging City, Shandong, China was carried out from January 2001 through October 2003. The removal efficiencies for various main parameters were: TSS 84.8±7.3%, BOD5 87.2±5.3%, CODCr 70.2±18.6%, TP 52.3±23.1%, and NH3-N 54.8±23.9% with effluent concentration of TSS 9.12±5.12 mg/l, BOD5 6.44±4.58 mg/l, CODCr 42.8±6.7 mg/l, TP 0.94±0.27 mg/l and NH3-N 7.95±2.36 mg/l. In addition, the removal efficiencies for faecal coliforms and total bacteria were >99.97% and >99.998% respectively, which well meet Chinese National standards for effluent quality of municipal wastewater treatment plants. The composition of TSS was closely related to CODCr and BOD5 variations, and nitrification-denitrification is the major mechanism of nitrogen removal both in ponds and in wetlands. In addition, sedimentation also played an important role in the removal of TSS, nitrogen, phosphorus and BOD5. The removal efficiencies of various parameters, the number of species and biomass of biological community in the system increased gradually with the ecological maturation.

Near Future

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.
