Microbial diversity reveals the partial denitrification-anammox process serves as a new pathway in the first mainstream anammox plant

Zhi-Bin Wang et al.

Summary: The study uncovered the mystery of the PD-anammox process in a sewage treatment plant in Xi'an, China, by analyzing the diversity and phylogenetic investigation of microbial communities in the anoxic pond. It was found that the denitrifying bacteria (DNB) content in the anoxic tank is significantly higher than the content of ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB), confirming the existence of a DNB-anammox system at the microbial composition level. Furthermore, genetic analysis showed that the nitrite in the anoxic pool is mainly derived from denitrification, providing a new alternative option for the mainstream application of anammox.

Key factors governing the performance and microbial community of one-stage partial nitritation and anammox system with bio-carriers and airlift circulation

Hong Chen et al.

Summary: By controlling dissolved oxygen and aeration rate, stable performance can be maintained under oxygen-limiting conditions. The activation of ammonia oxidation bacteria (AOB), dominated anammox bacteria (AMX), suppression of NOB, and control of heterotrophic bacteria (HB) played a major role in achieving long-term stable operation in the biofilms.

Using anammox biofilms for rapid start-up of partial nitritation-anammox in integrated fixed-film activated sludge for autotrophic nitrogen removal

Ying-yu Li et al.

Summary: In this study, a new sludge seeding strategy was developed for the start-up of PNA-IFAS using pre-cultivated anammox biofilms, significantly shortening the start-up period and improving nitrogen removal efficiency. The use of anammox biofilms promoted biofilm development and reduced the enrichment of unwanted nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) in the bioreactor.

Mechanistic insights into the effect of poly ferric sulfate on anaerobic digestion of waste activated sludge

Xuran Liu et al.

Summary: Poly ferric sulfate (PFS) has a significant impact on methane production in activated sludge, leading to decreased methane potential and production rate, as well as extended lag time. PFS causes physical enmeshment, disrupts enzyme activity, and inhibits the bioprocess of hydrolysis, acidogenesis, and methanogenesis.

Deciphering the mechanism of medium size anammox granular sludge driving better nitrogen removal performance

Wenjing Chen et al.

Summary: The study found that AnGS with a diameter of 0.5-1.0 mm had the highest specific anammox activity, while those with a diameter of 1.0-1.5 mm might lead to better nitrogen removal efficiency. The content of slime EPS and SAA showed a positive correlation, while the protein/polysaccharide ratio of slime EPS and sludge volume index showed a negative correlation. AnGS with a diameter of 0.5-1.0 mm exhibited higher energy metabolism.

Achieving superior nitrogen removal performance in low-strength ammonium wastewater treatment by cultivating concentrated, highly dispersive, and easily settleable granule sludge in a one-stage partial nitritation/anammox-HAP reactor

Yan Guo et al.

Summary: The application of granule sludge in a one-stage partial nitritation/anammox (PNA) reactor achieved high nitrogen removal rate in low-strength ammonium wastewater (LSAWW) treatment. Addition of hydroxyapatite (HAP) increased the density of granules, improved settlability of sludge and made high biomass achievable in a short HRT.
