Modern paradigm has upgraded wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) to water resources recovery facilities (WRRFs), where aerobic granular sludge (AGS) is a sewage treatment technology with promising phosphorus recovery (PR) potential. Herein, the AGS-based simultaneous nitrification, denitrification, and phosphorus removal coupling side-stream PR process (AGS-SNDPRr) was developed with municipal wastewater. Results revealed that AGS always maintained good structural stability, and pollutant removal was unaffected and effective after 40 days of anaerobic phosphorus-rich liquid extraction (fixed rate of 30%). The AGS-SNDPRr achieved a stable phosphorus recovery efficiency of 63.40%, and the side-stream PR further exaggerated in situ sludge reduction by 7.7-10%. Apart from responses of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), the Matthew effect of typical denitrifying glycogen accumulating organisms (DGAOs) Candidatus_Competibacter up to 67.40% mainly contributed to enhanced performance of this new process. This study demonstrated a new approach for simultaneous advanced wastewater treatment, phosphorus recovery, and excess sludge minimization.
现代模式将污水处理厂(WWTP)升级为水资源回收设施(WRRF),其中好氧颗粒污泥(AGS)是一种具有有前景的磷回收(PR)潜力的污水处理技术。在此,采用城市污水开发了基于AGS 的同步硝化反硝化和磷去除耦合侧流 PR 工艺(AGS-SNDPRr)。结果表明,AGS 始终保持良好的结构稳定性,经过 40 天的富磷厌氧液提取(固定速率为 30%)后,对污染物的去除没有影响且效果良好。AGS-SNDPRr 实现了稳定的磷回收效率为 63.40%,侧流 PR 进一步使原位污泥减少了 7.7-10%。除了胞外聚合物(EPS)的响应外,典型的反硝化糖原积累菌(DGAOs)Canidatus_Competibacter 的马修效应高达 67.40%,主要有助于提高新工艺的性能。本研究为同时进行高级废水处理、磷回收和减少剩余污泥提供了一种新方法。
