High ammonium and low COD/TN ratio in piggery wastewater are identified as the primary pollution source leading to water eutrophication. An improved internal aerating microaerobic reactor (IAMR) showed efficient removal of COD, NH4+-N, and TN. The microbial community's increased oxidative stress tolerance contributed to enhanced nutrient removal efficiency.
Characterized by high ammonium(NH4+-N) and lowratio of chemical oxygen demand (COD) to total nitrogen (COD/TN), discharge of piggery wastewater has been identified as a primary pollution source resulting in water eutrophication. An improved microaerobic reactor, internal aerating microaerobic reactor (IAMR), was constructed to treat manure-free piggery wastewater without effluent recycle at dissolved oxygen of 0.3 mg/L and 32 degrees C. A removal rate of COD, NH4+- N and TN averaged 77.9%, 94.6% and 82.6% was obtained in the reactor, with the concentration of 258.5, 235.5 and 335.2 mg/L in influent, respectively. 16S rDNA amplicon sequencing, carbon and nitrogen mass balance and stoichiometry indicated that heterotrophic nitrification-anammox was the dominant approach to nitrogen removal. Microbiome phenotypes showed that aerobic bacteria were the dominant microorganisms, and themicrobiome oxidative stress tolerancewas intensified alongwith the continuous operation of the IAMR, resulting in the survival of various facultative and anaerobic bacteria for nutrients removal. With the good nutrients removal, less energy consumption, and high tolerance to influent fluctuation, the improved IAMR was confirmed as a promising process for treating wastewater with high NH4+-N and low COD/TN.
