The effects of graphene on low-temperature anammox process: The insights from short-term tests and long-term operation.

Effluent quality deterioration caused by seasonal low temperature is a great challenge to the application of anammox technology. Here, the effects of different graphene materials on anammox process were investigated under both optimal temperature and low-temperature. The batch tests showed that at 30 °C, 300 mg/L of reduced graphene oxide‑sodium alginate gel (RGOSA) had the most significant promoting effect, reaching nitrogen removal efficiency (NRE) and nitrogen removal rate (NRR) of 95 % and 8.
