摘要
主流部分硝化/厌氧氨氧化(PN/A)是一种很有前途的污水可持续脱氮方法。然而,它的实际执行至今仍然具有挑战性。在本研究中,开发了一种大规模主流部分硝化活性污泥系统,结合厌氧氨氧化固定膜(PN-AF)工艺处理城市污水。该工艺是通过用来自侧流PN/ a的成熟厌氧氨氧化联合体接种固定生物膜启动的。首次在工程上实际实现了化学抑制和生态位选择的综合应用,使PN-AF工艺在11.6 ~ 28.9℃的宽温度范围内实现了两年的连续运行。总氮(TN)平均去除率为91.8±4.6%,出水TN平均浓度为4.5±2.3 mg/L,氮去除率为0.072±0.01 kg N·m−3·d−1。分子分析表明,Brocadia菌相对丰度极高(17.87%),厌氧氨氧化活性比反硝化活性高8倍。总的来说,这项工作提出了一种可靠的主流部分硝化/厌氧氨氧化工艺,用于可持续的废水处理。
Full-scale mainstream partial nitritation/anammox process: A three-year demonstration for municipal wastewater treatment
Mainstream partial nitritation/anammox (PN/A) is recognized as a promising method for sustainable nitrogen removal from wastewater. However, its practical implementation remains challenging to date. In this study, a full-scale mainstream partial-nitritation activated sludge system, coupled with an anammox fixed-film (PN-AF) process, has been developed to treat municipal wastewater. The process was initiated by inoculating fixed biofilm with a mature anammox consortium sourced from a side-stream PN/A. The integrated application of chemical inhibition and ecological niche selection was practically implemented in engineering for the first time, enabling the PN-AF process to achieve two years of continuous operation within a wide temperature range (11.6–28.9 °C). The average total nitrogen (TN) removal efficiency was 91.8 ± 4.6 %, with an average effluent TN concentration of 4.5 ± 2.3 mg/L and a nitrogen removal rate of 0.072 ± 0.01 kg N·m−3·d−1. Molecular analysis revealed a remarkably high relative abundance of Candidatus Brocadia (17.87 %), accompanied by an eight times higher activity of anammox than that of denitrification. Overall, this work presents a reliable mainstream partial nitritation/anammox process for sustainable wastewater treatment.
