Article Synopsis
- A study compared two pilot-scale MBBR treatment trains in a wastewater plant using methanol and glycerol as carbon sources over 371 days.
- Both trains successfully met the total inorganic nitrogen requirement of < 3 mg/L while achieving significant savings in methanol (31.6% to 46.3%) and glycerol (30.9% to 43.8%).
- The research revealed differing mechanisms for nitrite production; methanol favored anammox through competition with denitrification, while glycerol relied on the rates of denitratation and denitritation, highlighting the importance of the half-saturation constants of the carbon sources.
