Simultaneous removal of phenol and nitrate in an anoxic fluidized bed reactor

Abstract: The general purpose of this study was to characterize a biological treatment system for phenol removal in an anoxic fluidized bed reactor (AFBR) that employed nitrate as the final electron acceptor. The average influent phenol concentrations in the study were 52, 107, 201, 335, and 518 mg/L so that phenol was not detected in the effluent for influent concentrations up to 335 mg/L. The removal efficiency dropped to 70% when the AFBR was operated with influent phenol concentrations above 500 mg/L. The ratio of c… Show more

“…Denitrification was possible for 22 of the 37 genera that may be relevant to surfactant degradation (Table S2). Denitrification has been widely used in FBR systems to treat hazardous wastewaters with inhibitory and/or recalcitrant compounds [38], and nitrate reduction is reportedly particularly resistant to LAS (at concentrations above 100 mg L -1 ) [39]. A metabolic capacity for denitrification may be related to LAS degradation.…”
