[Enhanced Nitrogen and Carbon Removal Performance of Simultaneous ANAMMOX and Denitrification (SAD) with Trehalose Addition Treating Saline Wastewater].

Enhanced nitrogen and carbon removal performance of simultaneous ANAMMOX and denitrification (SAD) process with trehalose addition treating saline wastewater was investigated in a sequencing batch reactor (SBR). The optimal nitrogen removal was achieved at 0.25 mmol·L trehalose, during which NH-N, NO-N, NO-N, and COD could be completely removed. Compared to no addition of trehalose, ammonium removal efficiency (ARE), nitrite removal efficiency (NRE) and total nitrogen removal efficiency (TNRE) increased by 50%, 43% and 46%. Ammonium removal rate (ARR) and nitrite removal rate (NRR) increased by 81.25% and 75%, respectively. With increasing concentration of trehalose to 0.5 mmol·L, ARE was only 58.82% and the effluent concentration of NH-N was 33.25 mg·L. Compared to the Haldane model and the Aiba model, the Luong model was the most suitable to simulate the nitrogen removal performance of SAD with trehalose addition treating saline wastewater. The NRR, , , and fitted from Luong model were 0.954 kg·(m·d), 0 mg·L, 184.785 mg·L, and 0.718, respectively. Compared to the modified Logistic model and the modified Boltzman model, the modified Gompertz model was the most suitable to describe the degradation of a substrate in a single cycle.
