Abstract
- Nitrogen in digested swine wastewater is currently difficult to directly degrade by an activated sludge process in a sequencing batch reactor (SBR), with resulting failure of the effluent to meet emission standards. In this study, rice husk biochar was optionally added into SBR to enhance biochemical properties for digested swine wastewater, especially for nitrogen degradation. The relative nitrogen removal mechanism for microbial community was probed by means of high-throughput sequencing. The results indicated that chemical oxygen demand (COD), ammonia (NH4+-N), and total nitrogen (TN) removal efficiency of digested swine wastewater was separately at 85.3%, 81.3%, and 65.2% using rice husk biochar with biofilm, which was 3.5%, 24.4%, and 14.7% higher than that of activated sludge, under influent of 2609 mg·L-1 COD, 337.0 mg·L-1 NH4+-N, 344 mg/L TN, and 7.77 C/N. High-throughput sequencing revealed that rice husk biochar with biofilm contained Proteobacteria, Thauera, Comamonas, Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas, Flavobacterium, and Corynebacterium to enhance nitrogen removal of digested swine wastewater. The results not only provide theoretical support for biochar with biofilm to improve digested piggery wastewater treatment, but also have great significance in resource utilization of agricultural waste and eco-environmental protection.
