Abstract

The effects of a single feeding cycle followed by a continuous aeration phase (ANDC) and a step-feeding cycle followed by intermittent aerobic/idle phases (ANDI) on the production and emission of nitrous oxide (N2O) from aerobic granular sludge (AGS) from real domestic sewage were studied. Higher N2O emissions were observed in the ANDI treatment, and 9.2 ± 4.1% of the influent TN was emitted as N2O, while in the ANDC treatment, 4.6 ± 2.5% of the influent TN was emitted as N2O. Both strategies were similar for carbon and total phosphorus removal; but ANDI was advantageous for ammonium nitrogen and total nitrogen removal. Regarding the microbial populations associated with N2O production, genera such as Thauera, a heterotrophic denitrifier, were found to have a relative abundance of 2.1% in ANDC and 3.8% in ANDI. Defluviccocus and Tetrasphaera, organisms capable of denitrification and phosphorus removal, especially the latter, were present in ANDC. Under ANDI conditions, these organisms may have been replaced by fast-growing organisms, such as Thauera. Principal component analysis (PCA) showed that incomplete denitrification was the dominant effect in the ANDC strategy. This may be related to the nitrate and phosphate concentrations and effluent characteristics (low C:N ratio). In the ANDI strategy, incomplete denitrification and low polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) consumption were the main effects. This is indicated by the high nitrite and phosphate concentrations. Therefore, according to the PCA results, the combination of the ANDC and ANDI strategies can play a crucial operational role in the dynamics of N2O production and emission, especially considering that real domestic wastewater was used in the present research.
