Abstract

Partial nitrification (PN) treatments on waste-brine were carried out in this study. Stable PN performance was obtained during continuous operation for 752 days, with a maximum nitrogen loading rate (NLR) of 3 kg-N m-3 day-1 and ammonium conversion rate (ACR) of 1.4 kgNm-3day-1. The ratios of NO2--N/ (NO2--N+NO3--N) (NR) were always above 97%, and BOD removal efficiencies were also stable at around 70% even if a sharp increase in NLR was applied during the stable period. Additionally, bacterial consortia analysis showed ammonium-oxidizing bacteria were the dominant microorganisms, which provided evidence for the long-term stable performance of this PN reactor. During the experiment, sludge setting properties deteriorated due to the absence of a biomass carrier. The stable performance of partial nitrification from waste-brine demonstrated the feasibility of the operation strategy in this study.
