Metagenomic data of the microbial community of lab-scale nitritation-anammox sequencing-batch bioreactor performing nitrogen removal from synthetic wastewater

Nitrogen removal by a nitritation-anammox bioreactor at low temperature.

Currently, nitritation-anammox (anaerobic ammonium oxidation) bioreactors are designed to treat wastewaters with high ammonium concentrations at mesophilic temperatures (25 to 40°C). The implementation of this technology at ambient temperatures for nitrogen removal from municipal wastewater following carbon removal may lead to more-sustainable technology with energy and cost savings. However, t...

Kinetic Characteristics and Microbial Community Analysis by Fish in Anammox Lab-scale Sequencing Batch Reactor

Metagenome of the Microbial Community of Anammox Granules in a Nitritation/Anammox Wastewater Treatment System

We sequenced the metagenome of a granular sludge in a nitritation/anammox bioreactor used for the treatment of ammonium-rich wastewater. Proteobacteria, Planctomycetes, Bacteroidetes, Chloroflexi, Ignavibacteriae, and Acidobacteria were the predominant phyla in the studied bioreactor. Binning of contigs yielded a near-complete genome of the dominant anammox bacterium assigned to the candidate g...

Nitrogen Removal from Wastewater by a Sequencing Batch Reactor

Sequencing batch reactor (SBR) is one of several periodically operated, suspended-growth activated sludge system. It has an advantage for nitrogen removal which is difficult to remove with conventional system. This paper reviewed the nitrogen removal performance in SBR for several different industrial wastewaters and discussed the factors which may affect the treatment performance. Several modi...
