Abstract
Anammox bacteria grow slowly and can be affected by large pH fluctuations. Using suitable buffers could make the start-up of anammox reactors easy and rapid. In this study, the effects of three kinds of buffers on the nitrogen removal and growth characteristics of anammox sludge were investigated. Reactors with CO2/NaHCO3 buffer solution (CCBS) performed the best in nitrogen removal, while 4-(2-hydroxyerhyl)piperazine-1-ethanesulfonic acid (HEPES) and phosphate buffer solution (PBS) inhibited the anammox activity. Reactors with 50 mmol/L CCBS could start up in 20 days, showing the specific anammox activity and anammox activity of 1.01±0.10 gN/(gVSS·day) and 0.83±0.06 kgN/(m3·day), respectively. Candidatus Kuenenia was the dominant anammox bacteria, with a relative abundance of 71.8%. Notably, anammox reactors could also start quickly by using 50 mmol/L CCBS under non-strict anaerobic conditions. These findings are meaningful for the quick start-up of engineered anammox reactors and prompt enrichment of anammox bacteria.

[PMID: 37423194 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2023.118566] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2023] [Revised: 06/21/2023] [Accepted: 07/01/2023] [Indexed: 07/11/2023]
Abstract
Free nitrous acid (FNA) is a critical metric for stabilization of ANAMMOX but can not be directly and immediately measured by sensors or chemical measurement method, which hinders the effective management and operation for ANAMMOX. This study focuses on FNA prediction using hybrid model based on temporal convolutional network (TCN) combined with attention mechanism (AM) optimized by multiobjective tree-structured parzen estimator (MOTPE), called MOTPE-TCNA. A case study in an ANAMMOX reactor is carried out. Results show that nitrogen removal rate (NRR) is highly correlated with FNA concentration, indicating that it can forecast the operational status by predicting FNA. Then, MOTPE successfully optimizes the hyperparameters of TCN, helping TCN achieve a high prediction accuracy, and AM furtherly improves model accuracy. MOTPE-TCNA obtains the highest prediction accuracy, whose R2 value gets 0.992, increasing 1.71-11.80% compared to other models. As a deep neural network model, MOTPE-TCNA has more advantages than traditional machine learning methods in FNA prediction, which is beneficial to maintain the stable operation and easy control for ANAMMOX process.

Abstract
The anammox-based process has been considered a promising biological nitrogen elimination method for the treatment of nitrogen-rich wastewater ever since its discovery 40 years ago. However, the slow growth rate of anammox bacteria and severe sludge washout result in a long startup period and limit its widespread industrial application. A membrane bioreactor (MBR) is considered an ideal reactor for the operation of the anammox-based process because the membranes allow for 100 % biomass retention. According to a systematic review of the literature, anammox-based MBR is becoming a research hotspot in the field of nitrogen wastewater treatment. The fundamental understanding of anammox-based MBR and its membrane fouling situation is essential for the development and application of anammox-based MBR. In this paper, the application of MBR in different kinds of anammox process are reviewed. The membrane fouling mechanism and strategies to control membrane fouling are also proposed. It is expected that this review will serve as an invaluable guide for future research and in the engineering applications of anammox-based MBR process.

Abstract
The anaerobic ammonia oxidation (anammox) process is a promising biological nitrogen removal technology. However, owing to the sensitivity and slow cell growth of anammox bacteria, long startup time and initially low nitrogen removal rate (NRR) are still limiting factors of practical applications of anammox process. Moreover, nitrogen removal efficiency (NRE) is often lower than 88 %. This review summarizes the most common methods for improving NRR by increasing microorganism concentration, and modifying reactor configuration. Recent integrated anammox-based systems were evaluated, including hydroxyapatite (HAP)-enhanced one-stage partial nitritation/anammox (PNA) process for a high NRR of over 2 kg N/m3/d at 25 °C, partial denitrification/anammox (PDA) process, and simultaneous partial nitrification, anammox, and denitrification process for a high NRE of up to 100 %. After discussing the challenges for the application of these systems critically, a combined system of anaerobic digestion, HAP-enhanced one-stage PNA and PDA is proposed in order to achieve a high NRR, high NRE, and phosphorus removal simultaneously.

Abstract
Nitrogen removal of petrochemical wastewater through partial nitritation/anammox (PN/A) is appealing, but its feasibility and stability under toxic inhibition remain unclear. This study started a PN/A granular sludge system in a membrane bioreactor and fed it with diluted acrylic fiber wastewater. During long-term operation, the nitritation and anammox performance remained stable at a 30% volume ratio, and declined with increasing volume ratio, resulting in deteriorated nitrogen removal. Meanwhile, the short-term inhibition batch tests further showed that ammonia oxidation bacteria (AOB) in the flocs were suppressed while anammox bacteria (AnAOB) in the granules were not affected. Further analysis indicated suppression of AnAOB over the long-term operation, which was mainly caused by the disintegration of granules as demonstrated by sludge morphology. This selective inhibition is associated with variational sludge morphology, and the distribution of functional bacteria plays an important role in the feasibility and stability of PN/A treating acrylic fiber wastewater. As above, this study demonstrated the feasibility of PN/A for acrylic fiber wastewater treatment, but wastewater dilution or pre-treatment is still required for efficient nitrogen removal.

Abstract
The synchronous nitrogen elimination and phosphorus (P) recovery can be realized by the novel one-stage partial nitritation/anammox (PN/A)-hydroxyapatite (HAP) crystallization (PN/A-HAP) process, which seems promising in actual application. This research firstly conducted the startup of the PN/A-HAP process based on reconciling biomass and mineral to cultivate the novel sludge with the strategy of alternating enhancement of biomass accumulation and mineral formation. Within three months, the nitrogen removal rate of 1.1 kg/m3/d and the P removal efficiency of 54.2% were achieved. The biomass reached to 3.7 g/L and the average particle size of sludge granules was about 260 μm. The microbial analysis indicated that in sludge the ammonium-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) mainly belonged to the genus Nitrosomonas, and the anammox bacteria mainly the genus Kuenenia. The main mineral in sludge was identified as HAP. This startup strategy is guidable for the application of one-stage PN/A-HAP process in actual wastewater treatment.

Abstract
To solve the bottleneck of the unstable accumulation of nitrite in the partial nitrification (PN)-anammox (AMX) in municipal wastewater treatment, a novel process called partial denitrification (PD)-AMX has been developed. PD-AMX, which is known for cost-efficiency and environmental friendliness, has currently exhibited a promising potential for the removal of biological nitrogen from municipal wastewater and has attracted much research interest regarding its process mechanisms, as well as its practical applications. Here, we review the recent advances in the PD process and its coupling to the anammox process, including the development, basic principles, main characteristics, and critical process parameters of the stable operation of the PD-AMX process. We also explore the microbial community and its characteristics in the system and summarize the knowledge of the dominant bacteria to clarify the key factors affecting PD-AMX. Then, we introduce the engineering feasibility and economic feasibility as well as the potential challenges of the process. The induction and implementation of partial denitrification and maintenance of mainstream anammox are critical issues to be urgently solved. Meanwhile, the implementation of a full mainstream anammox application remains burdensome, while the mechanism of partial denitrification coupled to anammox needs to be further studied. Additionally, stable operation performance and process control1 methods need to be optimized or developed for the PD-AMX system for better engineering practice. This review can help to accelerate the research and application of the PD-AMX process for municipal wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Low temperatures, or a sudden decrease in operating temperature, can seriously inhibit anammox activity, it is, therefore, important to maintain anammox activities at a low temperature. In this study, the use of gel beads to enhance the resistance of anammox biomass to a low temperature was investigated. The performance of three reactors: R1 without gel beads; R2 with polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan (PVA/CS); R3 with PVA/CS/Fe, was studied and compared in a temperature transition from 35 to 8 °C. When the operating temperature was ≥25 °C, there was little difference in nitrogen removal among the three reactors. Decreasing the temperature to < 25 °C created obvious difference between R1 and R2/R3. R1 had a nitrogen removal efficiency (NRE) of 33.1 ± 25.3% at 10 °C, significantly lower than that of R2 (90.5 ± 2.5%) or R3 (87.7 ± 11.1%). Unclassified Candidatus Brocadiaceae was the dominant genus at 10 °C, with an abundance of 44.4, 56.5 and 58.7% in R1, R2 and R3, respectively. These differences were attributed to the use of gel beads, which promoted the granulation of both the non-immobilized sludge and the immobilized biomass, resulting in higher anammox activities in R2/R3. The non-immobilized sludge of R1 was dominated by small particles (<300 μm) at 10 °C, while in R2 and R3 large particles (1000-2000 μm) were the main components. Furthermore, the immobilized biomass on gel beads exhibited much higher anammox activity and maintained a relatively high level of nitrate reductase and nitrite reductase in response to the temperature decrease. The Fe2+/Fe3+ in the PVA/CS/Fe gel beads further promoted microbial aggregation and led to an improved performance in R3 compared to R2. The results of this study demonstrate an effective approach to increase anammox resistance at low operating temperatures.

Insight into the influence of microbial aggregate types on nitrogen removal performance and microbial community in the anammox process - A review and meta-analysis.

Abstract
The anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) process has been paid close attention in the wastewater treatment field because of its energy-saving advantages. Different microbial aggregates have been used in the anammox process, and there is an urgent need to evaluate the comparative efficiencies of the widely used types of microbial aggregates with respect to their nitrogen removal performance as well as microbial community. To address this, 1724 published papers concentrating on three types of microbial aggregates, namely granules, biofilm, and flocs were compiled. A quantitative meta-analysis was carried out to compare the standard error of nitrogen removal efficiencies among these three microbial aggregates. The data sources of this meta-analysis comprised articles on granules (42%), followed by those on biofilm (33%) and flocs (25%). The granular sludge appeared to be competent in achieving the highest average nitrogen removal efficiencies of 81.1%, followed by biofilm (80.8%). Flocs provided comparatively poor removal of nitrogen pollutants with the lowest removal efficiency of 74.1%. Biofilm had the highest abundance of functional microbial communities with 43.4% on Candidatus Kuenenia and 11.2% on Candidatus Brocadia, which were detected in the anammox system as common genera. This meta-analysis suggested that the microbial aggregate types of granules and biofilm had a relatively low heterogeneity and high total nitrogen removal efficiencies for the anammox process and were the recommended microbial aggregates for anammox bacteria cultivation and operation of the anammox process.

Abstract
Over the past forty years, anammox-based processes have been extensively researched and applied to some extent. However, some of the long-standing problems present serious impediments to wide application of these processes, and knowledge gap between lab-scale research and full-scale operations is still considerable. In recent years, anammox-based research has developed rapidly and some emerging concepts have been proposed. The focus of this review is on the critical problems facing actual application of anammox processes. The latest developments in anammox-based processes are summarized, and particular consideration is given to the following aspects: (1) the evolution of the chemical stoichiometry of anammox reaction; (2) the status of several main anammox-based processes; (3) the critical problems and countermeasures; (4) the emerging anammox-based processes; and (5) the suggested optimal process integrating partial nitritation, anammox, hydroxyapatite crystallization and denitratation for digestion effluent treatment towards more efficient nitrogen removal and phosphorus recovery in the future.

Abstract
As a new wastewater biological nitrogen removal process, anammox and partial denitrification coupling not only plays a significant role in the nitrogen cycle, but also holds high engineering application value. Because anammox and some denitrifying bacteria are coupled under harsh living conditions, certain operating conditions and mechanisms of the coupling process are not clear; thus, it is more difficult to control the process, which is why the process has not been widely applied. This paper analyzes the research focusing on the coupling process in recent years, including anammox and partial denitrification coupling process inhibitors such as nitrogen (NH4+, NO2−), organics (toxic and non-toxic organics), and salts. The mechanism of substrate removal in anammox and partial denitrification coupling nitrogen removal is described in detail. Due to the differences in process methods, experimental conditions, and sludge choices between the rapid start-up and stable operation stages of the reactor, there are significant differences in substrate inhibition. Multiple process parameters (such as pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen, redox potential, carbon-to-nitrogen ratio, and sludge) can be adjusted to improve the coupling of anammox and partial denitrification to modify nitrogen removal performance. As a new wastewater biological nitrogen removal process, anammox and partial denitrification coupling not only plays a significant role in the nitrogen cycle, but also holds high engineering application value.![]()

Abstract
An anaerobic ammonium oxidation-upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (anammox-UASB) reactor was operated without temperature control during the four seasons and was therefore subjected to natural periodic temperature variations between 9 and 28 ℃. The anammox reactor had a high nitrogen removal ability at intermediate and low temperatures. The total nitrogen (TN) concentration of the influent increased from 200 to 1200 mg/L, the nitrogen removal efficiency was maintained at 90%, and the nitrogen removal rate (NRR) increased to 9.15 ± 0.35 kg N/m3/d. The enrichment of anammox bacteria in the UASB granular sludge reached 53.8%, and the dominant bacteria changed from Candidatus Brocadia to Candidatus Kuenenia after several seasons of cultivation. Dynamics analysis revealed that the maximum reaction rate of the anammox-UASB sludge was 62.5 kg N/m3/d, reflecting the high potential nitrogen removal ability of the reactor.

Abstract
The effects of different frequencies of pulsed electric field (PEF) on the ANAMMOX process were investigated. The results showed that the intermediate frequency could dramatically enhance both the ANAMMOX bacterial activity and granule sludge stability at 16 ± 1 °C The nitrogen removal efficiency of R1 (intermediate frequency) was significantly enhanced by 62.24% and 79.51% compared to R2 (lower frequency) and R3 (higher frequency), with a nitrogen loading rate of 6.84 kg Nm-3 d-1. In addition, the intermediate frequency could stimulate cells to secrete more extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) to sustain the granule sludge stability. The granule sludge disintegrated on days 55 and 35 in R2 and R3. The protein (PN)/polysaccharide (PS) ratios of R1 were 28.46% and 54.20% higher than R2 and R3, which was beneficial to granule sludge stability. This study showed that PEF could solve the problem of decreased ANAMMOX bacterial activity and granule stability at lower temperatures.

Abstract
NaClO based chemically enhanced backwash (CEB) is often administered to maintain membrane permeability during the operation of MBR. However, the effect and working mechanism of NaClO concentrations in CEB were rarely investigated. The current investigation examined the changes in membrane resistance, permeate production and membrane morphology with or without CEB in an anammox MBR to reveal the scrubbing effect of different NaClO concentrations (0-596 mg/L). Good cleaning effect indicated by membrane fouling rate of 1.98-2.26 kPa/day and membrane permeate production of 80-88 L was observed when NaClO concentration of 149-596 mg/L was used. The best cleaning effect was observed when 298 mg/L of NaClO was used. To explore the mechanism of CEB action, backwashing foulants were also analyzed. Insoluble EPS transformed into soluble forms like S-EPS or SMP after the sludge was exposed to NaClO. The NaClO based CEB removed 112-675 mg of polysaccharide (PS)/m2 in foulants at NaClO concentration of 149-596 mg/L, which was significantly higher than the value obtained by pure water (35 mg PS/m2). The possible mechanisms behind the detachment of soluble PS seemed as oxidation and sterilization by NaClO. The current investigation provides useful guidelines on NaClO concentrations applied during CEB for anammox MBR.

Abstract
This study explored the effect of a pulsed electric field (PEF) on the anaerobic ammonium oxidation (ANAMMOX) process at room temperature (20 ± 1 °C). The influences of different modes of PEF (R1), a direct current electric field (R2) and a control reactor (R3) were determined through long-term tests. The results showed that R1 shortened the start-up time and led to excellent nitrogen removal. At this stage, the activities of key enzymes of R1 were much higher than those of R3. The high-throughput sequencing results showed that the relative abundance of functional bacteria in R1 was higher than that in R2 and R3. The mechanism by which the PEF enhanced ANAMMOX might be the improvement of the speed of ion and molecular migration that occurred by changing the permeability of the cell membrane under the PEF.

Abstract
Fluidized bed bioreactors (FBR) are characterized by two-phase mixture of fluid and solid, in which the bed of solid particles is fluidized by means of downward or upward recirculation stream. FBRs are widely used for multiple environmental engineering solutions, such as wastewater treatment, as well as some industrial applications. FBR offers many benefits such as compact bioreactor size due to short hydraulic retention time, long biomass retention on the carrier, high conversion rates due to fully mixed conditions and consequently high mass transfer rates, no channelling of flow, dilution of influent concentrations due to recycle flow, suitability for enrichment of microbes with low Km values. The disadvantages of FBRs include bioreactor size limitations due to the height-to-diameter ratio, high-energy requirements due to high recycle ratios, and long start-up period for biofilm formation. This paper critically reviews some of the key studies on biomass enrichment via immobilisation of low growth yield microorganisms, high-rates via fully mixed conditions, technical developments in FBRs and ways of overcoming toxic effects via solution recycling. This technology has many potential new uses as well as hydrodynamic characteristics, which enable high-rate environmental engineering and industrial applications.
