Abstract:
In order to achieve advanced nitrogen removal while removing organics in the landfill leachate, SBR (sequencing batch reactor) was applied with the operation in which the stir and aeration were alternately proceeded until the completion of nitrification and then anoxic stir was well proceeded until the completion of endogenous denitrification without any external carbon source added. Under the synergistic effect of alternate stir and aeration, SND (simultaneous nitrification and denitrification) and endogenous denitrification, the effluent TN(total nitrogen) can be less than 40 mg/L and TN removal reaches over 95% without any external carbon source added, which meets the Chinese latest TN discharge standards of leachate. Meanwhile, since 50% TN is removed through endogenous denitrification, the mixed liquor suspended solids maintains at about 6 g/L and the yield of sludge reduces greatly. The contrast tests under different operation modes indicate that the content of polyhydroxyalkanoates in the activated sludge is the key factor of the nitrogen removal efficiency of the system. The previous anaerobic time before nitrification and the short interval time during the nitrification are good to increase the carbon storage of the sludge and improve the nitrogen removal efficiency. Conventional continuous aeration without stirring can not achieve advanced nitrogen removal via endogenous denitrification.
