Zhang B, Mao W, Chen S, Wang X. Characteristics and key driving factors of nitrous oxide emissions from a full-scale landfill leachate treatment system. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 931:172821. [PMID: 38688376 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.172821] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2024] [Revised: 04/01/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024]
Abstract
The characteristics of N2O emission from a full-scale landfill leachate treatment system were investigated by in-situ monitoring over 1.4 years and driving factors responsible for these emissions were identified by statistical analysis of multidimensional environmental variables. The results showed that the maximum N2O emission flux of 2.21 × 107 mg N·h-1 occurred in the nitrification tanks, where 98.5 % of the total N2O was released, with only 1.5 % of the total N2O emitted from the denitrification tanks. Limited oxygen in nitrification tank was responsible for N2O hotspot. The N2O emissions from the parallel lines A and B (both comprising the primary biochemical system) accounted for 52.6 % and 46.6 %, respectively, while the secondary biochemical system contributed only 0.8 % to the total emissions. Higher nitrite concentration in line A and lower nitrogen loading in the secondary biochemical system caused these discrepancies. We found that during the steady state of leachate treatment, intensive N2O emissions of 253.4-1270.5 kg N·d-1 were measured. The corresponding N2O emission factor (EF) ranged from 8.86 to 49.6 %, much higher than those of municipal wastewater treatment. But N2O EF was inconceivably as low as 0.42 % averagely after system maintenance. Influent with low salinity was the key reason, followed by the high MLSS and varying microbial community after maintenance. The dominant genus shifted from Lentimicrobium and Thauera to Norank-F-Anaerolineaceae and Unclassified-F-Rhodocyclaceae. This study underscores the significance of landfill leachate treatment in urban nitrogen management and provides valuable insights into the characteristics and driving factors of N2O emissions from such systems. The findings offer important references for greenhouse gas emission inventories and strategies for N2O control in full-scale wastewater treatment plants.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 917:170371. [PMID: 38280582 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.170371] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2023] [Revised: 01/19/2024] [Accepted: 01/20/2024] [Indexed: 01/29/2024]
Abstract
Excavated waste is a byproduct of microbial decomposition and fermentation following landfill disposal. The effective management and utilization of excavated waste offer broad prospects for environmental and resource protection, as well as economic growth. While current research predominantly focuses on plastics in landfills, the physico-chemical properties of excavated waste over extended landfilling time remain unclear. This study aimed to address this gap by excavating waste from a landfill in Tianjin, China, with a maximum landfilling time of 18 years. The findings revealed that, compared to municipal solid waste (MSW), the excavated waste exhibited increased calorific value, ash content, and fixed carbon content after screening the landfill-mined-soil-like-fine fraction. The average calorific value of the excavated waste could reach 57.8 MJ/kg. Additionally, the oxygen content in the excavated combustible waste exceeded that of MSW, increasing from 25.59 % to 34.22 %. This phenomenon is potentially linked to the oxidation of attached soil impurities and waste. The study identified polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), expanded polystyrene (EPS), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and wood as the primary combustible components. Notably, the excavated waste exhibited a significant decrease in surface gloss, adopting a rough texture with apparent holes, potentially attributed to the acidification and corrosion of organic matter during fermentation. Nevertheless, the breaking of molecular bonds could also contribute to waste fragmentation. Furthermore, an increase in landfilling time resulted in a more pronounced decrease in mechanical properties. For instance, the failure load of PE decreased from 15.61 N to 6.46 N, and PET reduced from 884.83 N to 186.56 N. The chemical composition of excavated waste has changed, with -OH and CO observed in PE with an 18-year landfilling time. In conclusion, these results provide a theoretical foundation for the recycling of excavated waste and contribute to the advancement of waste management and recycling technologies.

Abstract
Shortcut nitrification is crucial for application of autotrophic nitrogen removal which is beneficial for treating carbon-limited wastewater. In this experiment, rapid start-up of autotrophic shortcut nitrification system was studied in a small sequencing batch reactor (SBR) built in laboratory with intermittent aeration operation mode. The influent was artificially simulated inorganic domestic wastewater (the ammonium nitrogen concentration was 35.19-57.54 mg/L), the pH value was 7.6-7.8, the hydraulic loading was 1L, the operating temperature was 24.3-28.3 °C, and the dissolved oxygen (DO) was 2-4 mg/L and 0.5-0.9 mg/L at the stage of complete nitrification sludge domestication and shortcut nitrification sludge domestication. High-throughput sequencing technology was used to analyse the composition and changes of microbial populations in sludge. The experimental results showed that on the 24th day of the experiment, shortcut nitrification was started successfully, the accumulation rate of nitrite was 81.63% and the removal efficiency of ammonium nitrogen was 99.25%; the richness of the main denitrifying bacteria phylum Proteobacteria increased from 30.21% to 42.85%; the richness of Nitrosomonas (ammonia oxidizing bacteria, AOB) increased from 0.37% to 22.43%, and at the species level, AOB was the salt-tolerant bacteria Nitrosomonas. europaea; the richness of Nitrospira (nitrite oxidizing bacteria, NOB) decreased from 2.59% to 0.47%.

Abstract
Landfill leachate treatment processes tend to emit more N2O compared to domestic wastewater treatment. This discrepancy may be ascribed to leachate water characteristics such as high refractory COD, ammonium (NH4+) content, and salinity. In this work, the leachate influent was varied to examine the N2O emission scenarios. NH4+-N, COD, and Cl- concentrations ranged between 1000-2500, 1000-10,000, and 500-3000 mg L-1, respectively. Simultaneously, we attempted to combine statistical analysis with high-throughput sequencing to understand the microbial mechanism with regards to N2O emission. Results show that the strong N2O emissions occur in the nitrifying tank due to the intensive aeration. The system receiving the lowest COD shows the maximum N2O emission factor of 42.7% of the removed nitrogen. Both redundancy analysis and a structural equation model verify that insufficient degradable organics are the key water parameter triggering intensive N2O emission within the designed influent limits. Furthermore, two essential but non-abundant functional bacteria, Flavobacterium (acting as a denitrifier) and Nitrosomonas (acting as a nitrifier), are identified as the core functional species that dramatically influence N2O emissions. An increase in influent COD promotes the proliferation of Flavobacterium and inhibits Nitrosomonas, which in turn reduce N2O release. Meanwhile, two keystone species of Castellaniella and Saprospiraceae unclassified are recognized. They may supply a suitable niche and integrity of the microbial community for N-cycle functional bacteria. These findings reveal the essential role of non-abundant species in microbial community, and expand the current understanding of microbial interactions underlying N2O dynamics in leachate treatment systems.

Abstract
With the development of economy and the improvement of people’s living standard, landfill leachate has been increasing year by year with the increase in municipal solid waste output. How to treat landfill leachate with high efficiency and low consumption has become a major problem, because of its high ammonia nitrogen and organic matter content, low carbon to nitrogen ratio and difficult degradation. In order to provide reference for future engineering application of landfill leachate treatment, this paper mainly reviews the biological treatment methods of landfill leachate, which focuses on the comparison of nitrogen removal processes combined with microorganisms, the biological nitrogen removal methods combined with ecology and the technology of direct application of microorganisms. In addition, the mechanism of biological nitrogen removal of landfill leachate and the factors affecting the microbial activity during the nitrogen removal process are also described. It is concluded that the treatment processes combined with microorganisms have higher nitrogen removal efficiency compared with the direct application of microorganisms. For example, the nitrogen removal efficiency of the combined process based on anaerobic ammonium oxidation (ANAMMOX) technology can reach more than 99%. Therefore, the treatment processes combined with microorganisms in the future engineering application of nitrogen removal in landfill leachate should be paid more attention to, and the efficiency of nitrogen removal should be improved from the aspects of microorganisms by considering factors affecting its activity.

Abstract
Dissolved oxygen (DO) is an important factor influencing biological nitrogen removal. This study investigated the effects of different DO concentrations (4, 2, 1 mg/L) on nitrous oxide (N2O) production and nitrogen removal via shortcut simultaneous nitrification and denitrification by aerobic granular sludge (SNDAG) using a sequencing bath reactor. The results showed that N2O production was highest (127.6 mg/m3) at a DO concentration of 2 mg/L; this was 24.17 and 2.90 times the production at DO concentrations of 4 and 12 mg/L, respectively. The removal efficiency of total nitrogen also was the highest (61.68%) when the DO concentration was 2 mg/L, compared to 35.22% and 50.65% at DO concentrations of 4 and 1 mg/L, respectively. The efficiency of the SNDAG process reached 53.86% at a DO concentration of 2 mg/L, which was 1.33 and 1.67 times the efficiencies at DO concentrations of 4 and 1 mg/L, respectively. Therefore, reducing the DO concentration benefited the SNDAG process, but increased the emission of N2O.

Abstract
The application of multi-stage systems including biological step, for the treatment of leachate from municipal landfills, is economically and technologically justified. When microbial activity is utilized as 2nd stage of treatment, the task of 1st stage is to increase the bioavailability of organic matter. In this work, the effect of advanced oxidation process by Fenton's reagent for treatment efficiency of landfill leachate in the sequencing batch reactor was assessed. The quantitative dynamics of bacteria taking a part in ammonia removal process was evaluated by determination of number of DNA copies of 16S rRNA and amoA. Products of neutral pH chemical oxidation, had a definite positive impact on the quantity of β-proteobacteria 16S rRNA, whereas the same gene specified for Nitrospira sp. as well as amoA did not show a significant increase during the process of biological treatment, regardless of whether the reactor was fed with raw leachate or chemically pre-treated.

Abstract
The goal of this study was to compare the nitrogen removal rate, effluent algal growth potential (AGP), nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions and global warming potential (GWP) between two laboratory-scale bioreactors: the autotrophic denitrification biofilter (ADBF) and heterotrophic denitrification biofilter (HDBF) for treating nitrate-contaminated surface water. The comparative study of nitrogen removal rate between ADBF and HDBF was conducted by a long-term experiment, and the comparative study of the effluent AGP, N2O emissions and GWP between ADBF and HDBF were carried out by the corresponding batch tests. The results show that the heterotrophic and autotrophic denitrification rates were close to each other. Besides, the AGP of the ADBF effluent was 2.08 times lower than that of the HDBF effluent, while the N2O concentration in off-gas emitted from HDBF was 6-8 times higher than that from ADBF. The higher N2O-N emission rate of HDBF was mainly responsible for the higher GWP of HDBF than that of ADBF. Furthermore, with a novel light-weight filtration media (NLWFM) for filtration, the autotrophic denitrification (ADN) process combined with biofilter process would be the optimal denitrification process for nitrogen removal from nitrate-contaminated surface water. The study also provided a systematic method for evaluation of biological nitrogen removal (BNR) process.

Abstract
Methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions and responsible microorganisms during the treatment of municipal solid waste leachate in two-stage membrane bioreactor (MBR) was investigated. The MBR system, consisting of anaerobic and aerobic stages, were operated at hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 5 and 2.5days in each reactor under the presence and absence of sludge recirculation. Organic and nitrogen removals were more than 80% under all operating conditions during which CH4 emission were found highest under no sludge recirculation condition at HRT of 5days. An increase in hydraulic loading resulted in a reduction in CH4 emission from anaerobic reactor but an increase from the aerobic reactor. N2O emission rates were found relatively constant from anaerobic and aerobic reactors under different operating conditions. Diversity of CH4 and N2O producing microorganisms were found decreasing when hydraulic loading rate to the reactors was increased.

Abstract
Biological conversion of sulfide, acetate, and nitrate to, respectively, elemental sulfur (S(0)), carbon dioxide, and nitrogen-containing gas (such as N2) at NaCl concentration of 35-70 g/L was achieved in an expanded granular sludge bed (EGSB) reactor. A C/N ratio of 1:1 was noted to achieve high sulfide removal and S(0) conversion rate at high salinity. The extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) quantities were increased with NaCl concentration, being 11.4-mg/g volatile-suspended solids at 70 mg/L NaCl. The denitrifying sulfide removal (DSR) consortium incorporated Thauera sp. and Halomonas sp. as the heterotrophs and Azoarcus sp. being the autotrophs at high salinity condition. Halomonas sp. correlates with the enhanced DSR performance at high salinity.
