The mature aerobic granular sludge (AGS) was inoculated in a continuous-flow joint constructor reactor to treat low chemical oxygen demand/nitrogen (COD/N) ratio sewage. The effects of aeration intensity and hydraulic retention time (HRT) on the denitrification and phosphorus removal efficiencies and the granular sludge stabilization were investigated. When the aeration intensity was 300 mL x min(-1) (superficial air upflow velocity of 1.

The COD, ammonia and total nitrogen removal efficiency, as well as the physical properties of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) and its denitrification kinetics were studied in the continuous flow reactor. The experimental results showed that the AGS was successfully cultivated in the continuous flow system within 40 days. The nitrogen and carbon removal efficiencies were gradually improved with the improvement of sludge granulation.
