Abstract:
Nitrite accumulation during the denitration process with SBR treating pre-treated by anoxic/anaerobic up-flow anaerobic sludge bed(UASB) was observed at low temperatures.The effects of types of carbon sources on nitrite accumulation were investigated for comprehensive understanding the mechanism of nitrite accumulation. Experimental results clearly showed that nitrite accumulated obviously when five carbon sources (methanol, ethanol, sodium acetate, sodium propinoate and glucose), except for glucose, were used as electron donor. Additionally, nitrite accumulations were observed at four different initial nitrate concentrations and lower temperatures. The maximum concentrations of nitrite accumulation were 37.8, 21.5, 25.2 and 18.8 mg/L, respectively, and the corresponding nitrite accumulation rates (N/VSS·t) were 0.117, 0.136, 0.235 and 0.068 g/(g·d) during the nitrite accumulation period. Two break pionts of "nitrate knee" and "nitrite knee" on oxidation reduction potential (ORP) profile indicated that the reduction reactions of nitrate and nitrite were completed, respectively.
