Effect of basic operating parameters on biological phosphorus removal in a continuous-flow anaerobic–anoxic activated sludge system

Abstract: A continuous-flow anaerobic-anoxic (A2) activated sludge system was operated for efficient enhanced biological phosphorus removal (EBPR). Because of the system configuration with no aeration zones, phosphorus (P) uptake takes place solely under anoxic conditions with simultaneous denitrification. Basic operating conditions, namely biomass concentration, influent carbon to phosphorus ratio and anaerobic retention time were chosen as variables in order to assess their impact on the system performance. The experi… Show more

“…In the practical applications, continuous-flow system is the most commonly used in wastewater treatment plant, and the growth environment for EBPR granules is substantially different from that in SBRs (Kapagiannidis et al, 2012;Liu et al, 2012). Moreover, the substrate concentration maintained constant in a completely stirred tank reactor, instead of a continuous-flow system.…”

“…The bacterial community is altered strongly by significant external parameter changes, which may further have important impact on the performance of the overall BNR process [11]. For this reason, it is quite essential to profile the bacterial community alternations caused by fermentation liquid addition for maintaining stable and efficient operations of BNR process.…”

“…3). It was reported that under the challenge of DNPAOs enrichment, less than 30% of anoxic phosphorus removal was achieved in many traditional configurations [33]. The PHA utilization rate in anoxic zone was more than 70% and the content of GLY increased from 133.43 mgCOD/gVSS to 197.52 mgCOD/gVSS.…”
