This study investigated the effect of hydraulic conditions on the structural stability of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) technology and identified the significance of suitable Reynolds number (Re) on AGS stability.
Aerobic granular sludge (AGS) technology has been widely studied as The Next Generation Wastewater Treatment technology. The effect of hydraulic conditions on the structural stability of AGS has been widely studied. However, the function of flow regime on the AGS stability, especially dissolved oxygen (DO) mass transfer, is still unknown. In this study, we used the Reynolds number (Re) to quantify the flow regime and selected different stages of AGS as experimental subjects. Results showed that the relatively suitable Re (Re = 150) could create lower DO mass transfer limitation (Lc = 27.4 mu m) and increase protein (PN) contents and the abundance of hydrophobic functional groups in AGS. At this condition (Re = 150), the interfacial Gibbs free energy of sludge-water (Delta GaLS) was at a lower state (-129.75 +/- 2.15 mJ center dot m- 2), which favored the stability of AGS. Principal component analysis (PCA) and correlation analysis indicated that the response of Delta GaLS was affected by Lc, PN, and hydrophobic groups. In addition, results obtained for unstable AGS further verified that suitable Re regulates the structural stability of AGS. This study deepens the understanding of Re as an important hydraulic parameter for structural stability of AGS, which is also of great significance for energy saving of sequential batch reactors (SBRs) with agitation in practical engineering.
