Condensed wastewater treatment faces challenges from elevated ammonia-nitrogen levels (1972-2365 mg/L), a low carbon-to-nitrogen ratio (0.02-0.03), and inhibitory sulfides. To overcome these, a novel hybrid system integrating an effluent membrane-enhanced fixed-biofilm activated sludge (IFAS) reactor with partial nitritation/anammox (PN/A) was developed. The system demonstrated exceptional nitrogen removal performance at a maximum nitrogen removal rate of 1.5 kg N/(m·d) with a nitrogen removal efficiency of 82.3 %. Denitrification enhanced advanced nitrogen removal with a low nitrate production ratio (4.5 %), minimizing secondary pollution risks. Microbial analysis revealed substantial enrichment of anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing bacteria, with Candidatus Brocadia dominating the biofilm community (24.3 %). Membrane-mediated biomass retention selectively enriched Nitrosomonas (10.1 %) in suspended sludge, while biofilm detachment promoted granular anammox biomass development and further elevated Candidatus Brocadia abundance by 4.8 %. This synergistic configuration enhances process stability for treating high-ammonia/low-carbon wastewater and promotes the practical implementation of IFAS-PN/A systems.
浓缩废水处理面临着氨氮水平升高(1972 - 2365毫克/升)、低碳氮比(0.02 - 0.03)和抑制性硫化物等挑战。为克服这些问题,开发了一种新型混合系统,该系统将出水膜增强固定生物膜活性污泥(IFAS)反应器与部分亚硝化/厌氧氨氧化(PN/A)相结合。该系统展现出卓越的脱氮性能,最大脱氮速率为1.5千克氮/(立方米·天),脱氮效率达82.3%。反硝化作用增强了深度脱氮效果,硝酸盐产生率低(4.5%),将二次污染风险降至最低。微生物分析表明厌氧氨氧化细菌大量富集,“Candidatus Brocadia”在生物膜群落中占主导地位(24.3%)。膜介导的生物量保留选择性地使悬浮污泥中的亚硝化单胞菌富集(10.1%),而生物膜脱落促进了颗粒厌氧氨氧化生物量的发展,并使“Candidatus Brocadia”的丰度进一步提高了4.8%。这种协同配置增强了处理高氨/低碳废水的工艺稳定性,并推动了IFAS - PN/A系统的实际应用。
