Abstract
The high levels of free ammonia (FA) challenge the application of partial nitritation (PN) and denitrification (DN) in the treatment of ammonia-rich wastewater. This study explored the impact of high levels of FA on the PN and DN stability and microbial community dynamics. By reducing reflux and increasing influent load, the concentrations of FA in PN and DN reactors increased from 28.9 mg/L and 140.0 mg/L to 1099.8 mg/L and 868.4 mg/L, respectively. During this process, the performance of PN and DN remained stable. The microbial analysis revealed that the Nitrosomonas exhibited strong tolerance to high levels of FA, and its relative abundance was positively correlated with amoABC (R2 0.984) and hao (R2 0.999) genes. The increase in microbial diversity could enhance the resistance ability of PN against the FA impact. In contrast, high levels of FA had scant influence on the microbial community and performance of DN.

[PMID: 37311527 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2023.129305] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2023] [Revised: 06/02/2023] [Accepted: 06/07/2023] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
This article adopts the strategy of adding biochar and increasing HRT to accelerate the performance and particle morphology recovery of anaerobic ammonia oxidation granular sludge stored at room temperature for 68 days. The results showed that biochar accelerated the death of heterotrophic bacteria, shortened the cell lysis and lag period of the recovery process by 4 days, and it only took 28 days for the nitrogen removal performance of the reactor to recover to the original level, and 56 days for re-granulation. Biochar promoted the secretion of EPS (56.96 mg gVSS-1), and the sludge volume and nitrogen removal performance of the bioreactor remain stable. Biochar also accelerated the growth of Anammox bacteria. The abundance of Anammox bacteria in the biochar reactor reached 38.76% on the 28th day. The high abundance of functional bacteria and the optimized community structure of biochar made system (Candidatus_Kuenenia: 38.30%) more risk-resistant than control reactor.
