Optimal conditions and nitrogen removal performance of aerobic denitrifier sp. pw-6 and its bioaugmented application in synthetic domestic wastewater treatment.

To assess the possibility of using aerobic denitrification (AD) bacteria with high NO-N accumulation for nitrogen removal in wastewater treatment, conditional optimization, as well as sole and mixed nitrogen source tests involving AD bacterium, sp. pw-6 was performed. The results showed that the optimal carbon source, pH, / ratio, rotational speed, and salinity for this strain were determined to be succinate, 7, 20, 160 rpm, and 0%, respectively.

Mixed nitrifying bacteria culture under different temperature dropping strategies: Nitrification performance, activity, and community.

In this study, the nitrification performance, metabolic activity, antioxidant enzyme activity as well as bacterial community of mixed nitrifying bacteria culture under different temperature dropping strategies [(#1) growth temperature kept at 20 °C; (#2) sharp1 decreased from 20 °C to 10 °C; (#3) growth at 20 °C for 6 days followed by sharp decrease to 10 °C; and (#4) gradual decreased from 20 °C to 10 °C] were evaluated. It was shown that acclimation at 20 °C for 6 days allowed to maintain better nitrification activity at 10 °C. The nitrite oxidation capacity of nitrifiers was significantly correlated with the relative light unit (RLU) (p < .

Effect of different struvite crystallization methods on gaseous emission and the comprehensive comparison during the composting.

This study compared 4 different struvite crystallization process (SCP) during the composting of pig feces. Four combinations of magnesium and phosphate salts (H3PO4+MgO (PMO), KH2PO4+MgSO4 (KPM), Ca(H2PO4)2+MgSO4 (CaPM), H3PO4+MgSO4 (PMS)) were assessed and were also compared to a control group (CK) without additives. The magnesium and phosphate salts were all supplemented at a level equivalent to 15% of the initial nitrogen content on a molar basis.

Bioaugmentation for treatment of full-scale diethylene glycol monobutyl ether (DGBE) wastewater by Serratia sp. BDG-2.

A novel bacterial strain BDG-2 was isolated and used to augment the treatment of silicon plate manufacturing wastewater that primarily contains diethylene glycol monobutyl ether (DGBE). BDG-2 was identified as a Serratia sp. Under the optimal conditions of 30 °C, pH 9 and DGBE concentration of 2000 mg L(-1), the bioaugmented system achieved 96.

Bioaugmentation treatment of PV wafer manufacturing wastewater by microbial culture.

The wastewater of silicon photovoltaic (PV) battery manufacturing contained polyethylene glycol (PEG) and detergents, which possessed the characteristics of high content of organics and low bioavailability, and then resulted in high treatment costs. To address the difficulties of existing treatment facilities in stably meeting discharge standards, eight tons of microbial culture (consisting of Bacillus sp. and Rhodococcus sp.

Impact resistance of different factors on ammonia removal by heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification bacterium Aeromonas sp. HN-02.

To give reference for the application of heterotrophic nitrification-aerobic denitrification bacteria in actual wastewater treatment, the impact resistance of extreme pH, low temperature, heavy metals and high salinity on ammonia removal by a typical heterotrophic nitrifying-aerobic denitrifying bacterium Aeromonas sp. HN-02 was investigated. The results showed that HN-02 demonstrated strong acid- and alkali-resistance.
