Abstract
- Influence of anammox process on autotrophic denitrification was investigated in this study, during simultaneous ammonium, nitrate and sulfide treatment. Elemental sulfur production and nitrogen removal by sulfide-dependent denitrifier (S-den) and mixed culture (S-den-anammox) were compared. Accumulation of nitrite (100%) and elemental sulfur (46.3%) was achieved at pH 7.0 and 30 °C with S 2 O 3 2−/NO 3 − ratio of 1:1 by autotrophic denitrifier. Enhanced elemental sulfur production (56.5%–99.5%) by autotrophic denitrifier was obtained after coupling with anammox process. Total nitrogen removal increased to 80.5% in mixed culture reactor, which was 72.0% in anammox reactor. N 2 O emission in anammox reactor was not affected (<0.5% gaseous nitrogen) after coupling with autotrophic denitrification. Therefore, this study demonstrated enhanced elemental sulfur recovery and nitrogen removal through coupling of sulfide-dependent denitrification and anammox processes, which might be a potential technology for water eutrophication and corrosion control, and atmospheric acid rain, PM 2.5 and global warming control. Image 1 • Removal of NO 3 −, S2− and NH 4 + was achieved in sulfide-dependent DEAMOX process. • Elemental sulfur production was enhanced 26.8% after cooperation with anammox. • TN removal increased about 10% in sulfide-dependent DEAMOX reactor. • NO x was lower than 0.5% gaseous nitrogen in sulfide-dependent DEAMOX reactor.
