Sequentially aerated membrane biofilm reactors for autotrophic nitrogen removal: microbial community composition and dynamics
Membrane-aerated biofilm reactors performing autotrophic nitrogen removal can be successfully applied to treat concentrated nitrogen streams. However, their process performance is seriously hampered by the growth of nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB). In this work we document how sequential aeration can bring the rapid and long-term suppression of NOB and the onset of the activity of anaerobic am...
متن کاملNitrogen removal in a Sequencing Batch Biofilm Reactor: effect of carbon availability and intermittent aeration
This study aimed to investigate the effects of carbon availability and intermittent aeration on nitrogen removal in a Sequencing Batch Biofilm Reactor (SBBR). The percentage of nitrogen removal in the SBBRs operating with dump fill and slow fill with optimum intermittent aeration was quite similar, 75.7% and 69.2%, respectively, indicating that intermittent aeration allowed a considerable energ...
متن کاملTotal Nitrogen Removal in a Completely Mixed Membrane Biofilm Reactor for Nitrification and Denitrification
A Hollow-fiber Membrane Biofilm Reactor (MBfR) was used to nitrify and denitrify synthetic wastewater to remove nitrogenous pollutants such as ammonium, nitrate, and nitrite. Aerobic and anoxic MBfRs were combined to oxidize and reduce these nitrogenous pollutions using biofilms as the catalyst for these chemical reactions. The MBfR is capable of converting ammonium (NH4) to nitrogen gas (N2), ...
متن کاملMass transfer in a membrane aerated biofilm.
We present experimental results of mass transfer of a non reactive tracer gas (neon) measured in aerobic heterotrophic biofilm developed from activated sludge. Biofilms are grown in various hydrodynamic conditions and the effective diffusivity is used to quantify the mass transfer through the biofilm. Beyond some cross-flow conditions, the effective diffusivity through the biofilm seems larger ...
متن کاملStart-Up and Aeration Strategies for a Completely Autotrophic Nitrogen Removal Process in an SBR
The start-up and performance of the completely autotrophic nitrogen removal via nitrite (CANON) process were examined in a sequencing batch reactor (SBR) with intermittent aeration. Initially, partial nitrification was established, and then the DO concentration was lowered further, surplus water in the SBR with high nitrite was replaced with tap water, and continuous aeration mode was turned in...
