Non-Linear Data Reconciliation for a Partial Nitritation (SHARON) Reactor
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work demonstrates the usefulness of non-linear data reconciliation to evaluate available measurements and estimate unmeasured variables for a full-scale partial nitritation (SHARON) reactor for the treatment of wastewater with high ammonium concentrations. Despite a lack of measured data, the bilinear approach of formulating system constraints allowed to satisfy the requirements for data reconciliation and gross error detection, leading to a balanced data set and the estimation of unmeasured variables. Keyword: mass balances, data reconciliation, SHARON, wastewater treatment, biological nitrogen removal

Partial Nitritation of Nitrogen Rich Refinery Wastewater (sour Water) with Different Ic/n Molar Ratios
EXTENDED ABSTRACT For nitrogen rich streams, conventional biological treatment based on nitrification and denitrification usually lacks of efficiency and requires considerable amounts of an external carbon source to be supplied; on the other hand, physical-chemical processes are characterized by high operating costs. The possible application of partial nitritation SHARON (Single reactor for Hig...
متن کاملOperation of a SHARON nitritation reactor: practical implications from a theoretical study.
This contribution deals with the behaviour of a SHARON reactor for nitrogen removal from wastewater streams with high ammonium concentrations. A system analysis is performed on a two-step nitrification model, describing the behaviour of such a reactor. Steady states are identified through direct calculation using a canonical state space model representation. Practical operation of a SHARON reac...
متن کاملNovel partial nitritation treatment for anaerobic digestion liquor of swine wastewater using swim-bed technology.
A swim-bed reactor using the biofringe acryl-fiber biomass carrier was used for partial nitritation treatment for anaerobic digestion liquor of swine wastewater. The sludge in the reactor demonstrated excellent settling properties, and the sludge volumetric index (SVI) was always about 50 ml g(-1). The mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) concentration was maintained above 10,000 mg l(-1) with ...
متن کاملThe SHARON process in the treatment of landfill leachate.
The purpose of this paper was to study the partial nitrification of the nitrogen present in a landfill leachate applying the SHARON process in order to obtain a suitable effluent to the ANAMMOX process. As a first step, the SHARON reactor was fed anaerobically pre-treated leachate at an ammonium concentration of 2,000 mg N/L (1.1 kg N/m(3) d). In such conditions, the average ammonium and nitrit...
متن کاملControlling the nitrite:ammonium ratio in a SHARON reactor in view of its coupling with an Anammox process.
The combined SHARON-Anammox process for treating wastewater streams with high ammonia load is the focus of this paper. In particular, partial nitritation in the SHARON reactor should be performed to such an extent that a nitrite:ammonium ratio is generated which is optimal for full conversion in an Anammox process. In the simulation studies performed in this contribution, the nitrite:ammonium r...
