Abstract
Anaerobic ammonia oxidation (anammox) has been one of the most innovative discoveries for the treatment of wastewater with high ammonia nitrogen concentrations. The process has significant advantages for energy saving and sludge reduction, also capital costs and greenhouse gases emissions are reduced. Recently, the use of anammox has rapidly become mainstream in China. This study reviews the engineering applications of the anammox process in China, including various anammox-based technologies, selection of anammox reactors and attempts to apply them to different wastewater treatment plants. This review discusses the control and implementation of stable reactor operation and analyzes challenges facing mainstream anammox applications. Finally, a unique and novel perspective on the development and application of anammox in China is presented.

Abstract
Nitrogen contamination remains a severe environmental problem and a major threat to sustainable development worldwide. A systematic analysis of the literature indicates that the partial nitritation-anammox (PN/AMX) process is still actively studied as a viable option for energy-efficient and feasible technology for the sustainable treatment of N- rich wastewaters, since its initial discovery in 1990. Notably, the mainstream PN/AMX process application remains the most challenging bottleneck in AMX technology and fascinates the world's attention in AMX studies. This paper discusses the recent trends and developments of PN/AMX research and analyzes the results of recent years of research on the PN/AMX from lab-to full-scale applications. The findings would deeply improve our understanding of the major challenges under mainstream conditions and next-stage research on the PN/AMX process. A great deal of efforts has been made in the process engineering, PN/AMX bacteria populations, predictive modeling, and the full-scale implementations during the past 22 years. A series of new and excellent experimental findings at lab, pilot and full-scale levels including good nitrogen removal performance even under low temperature (15-10 °C) around the world were achieved. To date, pilot- and full-scale PN/AMX have been successfully used to treat different types of industrial sewage, including black wastewater, sludge digester liquids, landfill leachate, monosodium glutamate wastewater, etc. Supplementing the qualitative analysis, this review also provides a quantitative bibliometrics study and evaluates global perspectives on PN/AMX research published during the past 22 years. Finally, general trends in the development of PN/AMX research are summarized with the aim of conveying potential future trajectories. The current review offers a valuable orientation and global overview for scientists, engineers, readers and decision makers presently focusing on PN/AMX processes.

Abstract
The feasibility of a continuous feed and intermittent discharge airlift bioreactor for simultaneous carbon and nitrogen removal from a low COD/N wastewater was evaluated. The effect of two independent variables, HRT (10-20 h) and NH4+/(NH4++NO3-) ratio (0.25-0.75), on the bioreactor performance was studied. The relatively high anaerobic to aerobic time ratio made an effective contribution to NH4+, NO3-, and TN removal. TN removal was enhanced with increase in HRT and decrease in NH4+/NH4++NO3- and at the optimum condition, 616 mg/L (88%) and 213 mg/L (76%) of sCOD and TN were removed, respectively. The results suggested that the nitrogen removal process was based on a combination of anaerobic ammonium oxidation (Anammox), simultaneous nitrification-denitrification (SND), and presumable dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA) mechanisms.

Effects of salinity on the denitrification efficiency and community structure of a combined partial nitritation- anaerobic ammonium oxidation process. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2018; 249:550-556.

Abstract
The effects of salinity changes on nitrogen transformation efficiency and recoverability were studied by using a partial nitration (PN)- anaerobic ammonium oxidation (Anammox) integrated reactor. The changes of microbial community structure and population abundance during the increase and decrease of salinity were also analyzed by 16S rRNA gene high-throughput sequencing. The results showed that when the salinity was increased to 1.35%, the combined PN-Anammox process achieved the maximum stimulated and total nitrogen removal rate (TNRR) arrived at 1.1kg/(m3·d). When the salinity was higher than 1.35%, the activities of AOB and Anammox bacteria began to be inhibited. When the salinity reached 2.4%, the TNRR decreased to 60%. TNRR was fast restored, when salinity was reduced to 0.11%. The genes of AOB and Anammox bacteria indicated that the TNRR of the reactor was restored after salinity inhibition, but the functional microbial community structure and abundance had relatively large, irreversible changes.

In-situ restoration of one-stage partial nitritation-anammox process deteriorated by nitrate build-up via elevated substrate levels. Sci Rep 2016; 6:37500.

Abstract
The one-stage partial nitritation and anammox process (PN/A) has been a promising microbial process to remove ammonia from wastewater especially with low carbon/nitrogen ratio. The main breakdown was the deterioration caused by overgrowth of nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB) resulting effluent nitrate build-up in the PN/A process. This study presented an in-situ restoring strategy for suppressing NOB activity in a one-stage granular PN/A system deteriorated over 2 months, using elevated concentrations of substrates (ammonia and nitrite) under limited dissolved oxygen level. The results showed that the NOB activity was successfully suppressed after 56 days of restoration, and finally the ratio of produced nitrate/consumed ammonium was reduced from 36.8% to 7%. On day 66 the nitrogen removal rate obtained as 1.2 kg N/(m3·d). The high FA level (5-40 mg/L) and low dissolved oxygen (<0.13 mg/L) were responsible for NOB suppression. From quantitative PCR (qPCR) analysis, after this restoration, anammox bacteria had a widely growth, and AOB stay stable, but Nitrospira increase and Nitrobacter declined. High amount of NOB was still persistent in the granules, which was not easy to wash-out and threaten the deammonification performance.
