A novel post denitrification configuration for phosphorus recovery using polyphosphate accumulating organisms

Control structure design for resource recovery using the enhanced biological phosphorus removal and recovery (EBP2R) activated sludge process

“…PAOs are less sensitive to QP in the SBR because there is sufficient phosphorus to support their growth under aerobic conditions, thereby leading to higher phosphorus recovery rates compared to the CFS. The estimated phosphorus recovery is in the range of similar systems tested in both laboratory scale or modelling studies (36)(37)(38). The SBR was found to be more sensitive to influent disturbances, showing a high variability on the recovered phosphorus even when a single influent property was disturbed.…”

“…Furthermore, although the CFS leads to lower phosphorus recovery than the SBR, the performance is still better compared to other available technologies (e.g. [37]). …”

Sustainability in Phosphorus Use: A Question of Water and Food Security

“…116,117 O principal desafio na recuperação deste elemento químico em águas residuais é devido a baixa concentração observada, que frequentemente é menor do que 10 mg P L -1 . 116 A técnica da cristalização da estruvita, que já existente para a recuperação do fósforo em águas residuárias só é viável se a concentração de fósforo for superior a 50 mg P L -1 .…”

Applying near Infrared Spectroscopy and iPLS to Quantitative Analysis of PHB, Poly-P, and GLY in Denitrifying Phosphorus Removal

“…Under anaerobic conditions, denitrifying phosphorus removal bacteria absorb volatile fatty acids and synthesize intracellular poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) using the energy of the degradation of intracellular polyphosphate (Poly-P) and glycogen (GLY), and then release PO 4 3-into the outside [5][6][7]. However, under anoxic conditions, denitrifying phosphorus removal bacteria decompose stored PHB as an energy source to excessively absorb PO 4 3-and transform it to Poly-P, replenishing GLY and cell-growth [8][9][10][11]. Therefore, the metabolism of PHB, Poly-P, and Gly are considered to determine the efficiency of denitrifying phosphorus removal [12].…”
