UN(K)NOWN Project: Development of Anammox microbial inocula to improve nitrogen removal efficiency in wastewater treatment
(Corresponding) Ribeiro H., Machado A., Costa-Dias S., Wijaya I., Salgado P., Bordalo A., Teixeira C.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The discovery of anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) revealed the existence of a shortcut in the classic nitrogen cycle where ammonium is converted directly to dinitrogen gas. Anammox process can be used to develop more cost and energy-efficient sustainable nitrogen removal systems comparing to...Read more
Start-up of the nitrogen removal process in an anaerobic up-flow reactor inoculated with aeration tank sludge
Wijaya I., (Corresponding) Ribeiro H., Soedjono E., Slamet ., Teixeira C., Bordalo A.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
Anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) has been considered a promisingly alternative to traditional nitrification/denitrification to remove nitrogen in an autotrophic process, without using an external carbon source, requiring low energy consumption and sludge production. The start-up of the...Read more
One-stage and multistage anoxic/oxic systems based on continuous plug-flow anammox process for mature landfill leachate treatment
Ren S., (Corresponding) Peng Y.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
As a promising biotechnology, the anammox process has been increasingly investigated for landfill leachate treatment. However, its application has been limited by the long generation time of anammox bacteria (AnAOB) and insufficient nitrite supply in actual projects. To overcome these obstacles,...Read more
