In this study, the effect of Fe on the start-up of Anammox process was investigated. Four EGSB reactors were operated with the addition of 0 (R1), 0.04 (R2), 0.08 (R3) and 0.14 (R4) mmol/L Fe, respectively. The results showed that Fe remarkably improved the nitrogen loading rate (NLR) and operation efficiency of the reactor. After 180 days, the influent NH-N concentration in the four reactors was 201.4, 301.8, 343.2, 380.2 mg N/L, and the NLR was 589.3, 877.6, 993.0, 1105.8 mg N/(L·d), respectively. And the nitrogen removal rate (NRR) in R2, R3 and R4 was respectively 1.54, 1.73 and 1.94 times of that in R1. High throughput sequencing revealed that Fe could promote the enrichment of Anammox bacteria Candidatus Brocadia. Moreover, the analysis by qPCR indicated that the abundance of Anammox 16S rRNA gene and the functional gene hzsB increased, which showed a positive correlation with the concentration of Fe.

Iron-loaded diatomite (Fe-DE) was developed as the innovative material to enhance anammox granular sludge (AnGS) and mainstream anammox performance. By adding Fe-DE with the Fe:DE ratio of 1:20 and the dosage of 3 g/L, the start-up period of mainstream anammox process was shortened from 29 d to 17 d and its nitrogen removal rate was increased from 0.234 kg N/(m·d) to 0.

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.

The new-type submerged granular sludge membrane bioreactor (S-GSMBR) was constructed by installing a membrane module inside an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket. S-GSMBR achieved the fast start-up (47 d) and long-term stable operation (133 d) of mainstream Anammox process as well as the effective control of membrane fouling. The maximum nitrogen removal rate and efficiency were 0.

Anammox process was one of the most promising nitrogen removal technologies. This study investigated the recovery performance of Anammox sludge after 83 days of cryopreservation in two reactors (R1 and R2). Reactor R1 utilized Anammox sludge pretreated with low-substrate simulated wastewater prior to long-term cryopreservation, and successful recovery was achieved by discharging sludge under ammonia nitrogen concentrations of 100 mg/L.
