As the most important parameters affecting the biosorption, pH and temperature were studied in this paper in order to more completely understand their effects on chlorophenols' biosorption onto anaerobic granular sludge. Sorption isotherms of 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) and 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) at various temperatures were determined; the data of 4-CP could be simulated by Langmuir model, while the data of 2,4-DCP could only be reproduced by Freudlich equation. The uptake capacity of 4-CP and 2,4-DCP could reach 1.5mgg(-1) and 5.04mgg(-1) when 2,4-DCP concentration was 90mgL(-1) and 4-CP concentration was 107mgL(-1), respectively. 2,4-DCP was more strongly adsorbed onto the anaerobic granular sludge than 4-CP, which might be correlated with the numbers of chlorine substitute. The Experiments studying pH effects showed that the adsorption capacity of 4-CP and 2,4-DCP was quite pH dependent and increased with decrease in pH.

Stable inhibition of nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) is a significant challenge in achieving partial nitrification (PN) and partial nitrification-anaerobic ammonia oxidation (PNA). Growing evidence suggested that NOB can develop resistance to suppression over time, leading to the re-enrichment of NOB within reactors. To address these issues, this study aimed to achieve stable PN by regulating SRT to selectively washout NOB during the lag phase of activity recovery following FA/FNA exposure.

In order to study the resistance mechanisms of biofilm and granular sludge to various dissolved oxygen (DO) exposures in anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) process, a biofilm - granular sludge anammox reactor was established and operated. Experimental results showed that DO levels of ≤0.41 mg L hardly affected the total nitrogen removal efficiency (TNRE).

Biological acidification, efficient and low-cost biotechnology, is crucial in treating pharmaceutical, pesticide water, and petrochemical wastewater. Nitrobenzene is a typical organic pollutant in petrochemical wastewater with high toxicity and long persistence. However, its effect on hydrolysis acidification is yet to be fully elucidated.

Microbial loss significantly affects wastewater treatment efficiency. This study simulated the inoculation area of a self-developed biological doubling reactor (BDR) to evaluate the retention efficiency of seven different fillers for aerobic denitrifying bacteria. Over 90 days of continuous operation, the porous filler R3 demonstrated excellent performance, with OD values consistently exceeding 1.
