Attached activated sludge from the Krasnaya Polyana (Sochi) wastewater treatment plant was studied after the reconstruction by increased aeration and water recycle, as well as by the installation of a bristle carrier for activated sludge immobilization. The activated sludge biofilms developing under conditions of intense aeration were shown to contain both aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms. Activity of a strictly anaerobic methanogenic community was revealed, which degraded organic compounds to methane, further oxidized by aerobic methanotrophs. Volatile fatty acids, the intermediates of anaerobic degradation of complex organic compounds, were used by both aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms. Anaerobic oxidation of ammonium with nitrite (anammox) and the presence of obligate anammox bacteria were revealed in attached activated sludge biofilms. Simultaneous aerobic and anaerobic degradation of organic contaminants by attached activated sludge provides for high rates of water treatment, stability of the activated sludge under variable environmental conditions, and decreased excess sludge formation. 相似文献

The performance of an activated sludge wastewater treatment process consisting of an aeration tank and a secondary settler has been studied. A tanks-in-series model with backflow was used for mathematical modeling of the activated sludge wastewater treatment process. Non-linear algebraic equations obtained from the material balances of MLSS (mixed liquor suspended solids or activated sludge), BOD (biological oxygen demand) and DO (dissolved oxygen) for the aeration tank and the settler and from the behavior of the settler were solved simultaneously using the modified Newton-Raphson technique. The concentration profiles of MLSS, BOD and DO in the aeration tank were obtained. The simulation results were examined from the viewpoints of mixing in the aeration tank and flow in the secondary settling tank. The relationships between the overall performance of the activated sludge process and the operating and design parameters such as hydraulic residence time, influent BOD, recycle ratio and waste sludge ratio were obtained. 相似文献

Determination of some rheological parameters for the characterization of activated sludge 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
The rheological characterization of activated sludge originating from different aeration tanks and from a lab-scale plant was carried out using rotation tests. Two rheological parameters were used: limit viscosity (mu(infinity)) and reduced hysteresis area (rHa). Mu(infinity) was strongly influenced by the total suspended solids (TSS) content of sludge and an exponential relation was found between TSS and the rheological parameter mu(infinity). Significant differences in sludge viscosity were found for sludge of different origins, but all of 10 g/l TSS content, indicating ability of viscosity to show different sludge qualities. Marked changes in activated sludge microorganisms communities were shown to have an influence on rheological parameters. During aerobic digestion of sludge, variations in mu(infinity) were noticed, indicating change of sludge quality. An over-growth of filamentous bacteria species was shown to induce a particular rheological behavior which could be characterized by rHa. This parameter was proposed as an index of filamentous bacteria proliferation in activated sludge aeration tanks. 相似文献

This study's objective was to clarify both experimentally and theoretically whether a vertical multistage tower aeration tank system is advantageous as compared with a completely mixed system, particularly with respect to purification efficiency, sludge settleability, and excess sludge production. In comparing the two systems: (1) purification efficiency in the multistage tower aeration system with partial fluid mixing with a large Peclet number was higher than in a corresponding completely mixed system for all applied organic loadings; (2) the multistage tower aeration system had some definite advantages with respect to sludge settleability and excess sludge production; (3) the activated sludge system's higher performance with partial fluid mixing was shown quantitatively with the axial dispersion model in conjunction with growth kinetics which involved rapid uptake such as biosorption and subsequent oxidative biodegradation processes of organic substances.

The contribution of the major technologically important microbial groups (ammonium- and nitrite-oxidizing, phosphate-accumulating, foam-inducing, and anammox bacteria, as well as planctomycetes and methanogenic archaea) was characterized for the aeration tanks of the Moscow wastewater treatment facilities. FISH investigation revealed that aerobic sludge were eubacterial communities; the metabolically active archaea contributed insignificantly. Stage II nitrifying microorganisms and planctomycetes were significant constituents of the bacterial component of activated sludges, with Nitrobacter spp. being the dominant nitrifiers. No metabolically active anammox bacteria were revealed in the sludge from aeration tanks. The sludge from the aeration tanks using different wastewater treatment technologies were found to have differing characteristics. Abundance of the nitrifying and phosphate-accumulating bacteria in the sludge generally correlated with microbial activity in microcosms and with efficiency of nitrogen and phosphorus removal from wastewater. The highest microbial numbers and activity were found in the sludge of the tanks operating according to the technologies developed in the universities of Hannover and Cape Town. The activated sludge from the Novokur’yanovo facilities, where abundant growth of filamentous bacteria resulted in foam formation, exhibited the lowest activity. The group of foaming bacteria included Gordonia spp. and Acinetobacter spp utilizing petroleum and motor oils, Sphaerotilus spp. utilizing unsaturated fatty acids, and Candidatus ‘Microthrix parvicella’. Thus, the data on abundance and composition of metabolically active microorganisms obtained by FISH may be used for the technological control of wastewater treatment. 相似文献

Aerobic selectors in slaughterhouse activated sludge systems: a preliminary investigation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Al-Mutairi NZ 《Bioresource technology》2009,100(1):50-58
Filamentous bulking at a slaughterhouse activated sludge treatment plant significantly reduced mixed liquor settling properties, which caused many operational problems and worsening in effluent quality. The main cause of this condition was attributed to significant levels of influent readily biodegradable COD, which was present primarily in the form of organic acids. An aerobic selector was chosen to eradicate the usual bulking incidents of slaughterhouse wastewater treatment plants. Other plant enhancements included increased aeration batch reactor volume, and provision of step feed capability. Comparison of data before and after aerobic selector installation showed a significant improvement in mixed liquor settleability, which eradicated the need for chemicals that had been used to control filaments and to control effluent solids loss. The additional volume of the aeration and chemicals eliminations from the activated sludge system also served to eliminate aquatic toxicity in the treated effluent. 相似文献

The formation of a stable viscous foam on activated sludge aeration basin surfaces is a world wide problem. Foam is usually comprised of filamentous bacteria occurring predominantly in the mixed liquor. The lack of availability of pure cultures of most filaments and the limited amount of characterisation data available for them, means that our current understanding of their taxonomic position is very poor and their relationship to other bacteria are not known. 16S rDNA sequencing was used in an attempt to identify the bacteria in a foaming sample from the Centurion Waste Water Treatment Plant in Gauteng South Africa. 相似文献

Protein hydrolysis plays an important role in the transformation of organic matter in activated sludge wastewater treatment plants, but no information is currently available regarding the identity and ecophysiology of protein-hydrolysing organisms (PHOs). In this study, fluorescence in situ enzyme staining with casein and bovine serum albumin conjugated with BODIPY dye was applied and optimized to label PHOs in activated sludge plants. A strong fluorescent labeling of the surface of microorganisms expressing protease activity was achieved. Metabolic inhibitors were applied to inhibit the metabolic activity to prevent uptake of the fluorescent hydrolysates by oligopeptide-consuming bacteria. In five full-scale, nutrient-removing activated sludge plants examined, the dominant PHOs were always different morphotypes of filamentous bacteria and the epiflora attached to many of these. The PHOs were identified by FISH using a range of available oligonucleotide probes. The filamentous PHOs belonged to the candidate phylum TM7, the phylum Chloroflexi and the class Betaproteobacteria. In total they comprised 1-5% of the bacterial biovolume. Most of the epiflora-PHOs hybridized with probe SAP-309 targeting Saprospiraceae in the phylum Bacteroidetes and accounted for 8-12% of the total bacterial biovolume in most plants and were thus an important and dominant part of the microbial communities. 相似文献

Little is known about the endemic bacteriophages of activated sludge. In this investigation 49 virus-host systems were studied by isolating co-occurring bacteria and bacteriophages from the aeration basin of a sewage treatment plant during 5 successive weeks. The phage titers were high and fluctuated during the time period. The occurrence of phage-sensitive and -resistant hosts did not depend on the presence or absence of phages. Several phage-host systems expressed variable plating efficiencies. In addition, phages with broad host ranges were observed. These results show that phages are an active part of this ecosystem and that they may exert selection pressure for phage resistance on their bacterial host populations. 相似文献

针对西北干旱半干旱地区土壤贫瘠与水分缺乏的问题,利用微生物与作物形成互惠互利的共生关系,本研究设置两个水分梯度:干旱胁迫(供试土壤最大持水量的35%)和正常水分(供试土壤最大持水量的75%),两个覆膜方式:无覆膜(NM)和覆膜(FM),4个接种微生物水平:单接AM真菌(AM)、单接解磷细菌(PSB)、联合接种AM真菌与解磷细菌(AM+PSB)以及对照(CK),研究不同水分和覆膜条件下4个接种微生物对玉米生长特性、地上养分吸收与水分利用效率的影响.结果表明: 与正常水分处理相比,干旱胁迫能够显著提高接种AM真菌处理的侵染率,但正常水分处理下土壤根外菌丝密度、总球囊霉素(T-GRSP)与易提取球囊霉素(EE-GRSP)含量明显提高.干旱胁迫下,单接AM真菌处理的促生作用和菌根效应表现最好,能够提高玉米生物量、水分利用效率和土壤有机碳含量,促进土壤N、P、K的吸收与运输,从而增加玉米地上部分N、P、K吸收量;而正常水分下,联合接种AM+PSB处理表现要好于单接AM和PSB处理,且其与覆膜的互作效果最好.相关分析结果表明,玉米生物量、叶片SPAD值和地上部分N、P、K吸收量均与土壤根外菌丝密度呈显著正相关,玉米水分利用效率与其呈显著负相关. 相似文献

Filamentous bulking is one of the solid-liquid separation problems always seen in activated sludge process. The addition of synthetic polymer is always one of the popular ways for the treatment plant operator to immediately solve the poor sludge settling problem. Therefore, it may be interesting to understand the effects of synthetic polymer on the filamentous bacteria in activated sludge. In this study, synthetic polymer was applied to a lab-scale wastewater treatment system with the filamentous bulking problem. The population structure of filamentous bacteria and sludge characteristics were investigated under different conditions. When synthetic polymer was added into the system, it was found that poor sludge settleability caused by filamentous bulking was temporarily solved and filamentous branches growing outside the flocs were damaged or inhibited. However, filamentous growth was still observed inside the flocs. After the addition of polymer was halted, filamentous branches extended out of the flocs immediately. Very serious filamentous bulking occurred and sludge settleability became much worse than that occurring before the addition of polymer. And, it took several weeks for the system to return to normal operation. 相似文献

Enhanced biological nitrogen removal processes are necessarily required to cope with more stringent wastewater discharging regulations, especially for wastewater with low level of organic carbon to nitrogen ratios. The intermittent aeration activated sludge process has been received comprehensive attention over the past decades, due to its excellent performance in nitrogen removal and remarkable reduction of energy consumption. Recent advances for this technology was reviewed from aspects of characteristics of system, factors affecting nitrogen removal, nitrous oxide (N2O) emission and its control, and application of the technology and its operation control. Finally, future development was proposed. In the intermittent aeration activated sludge process, aeration duration should be controlled for adequate nitrification and non-aeration duration should be adequate for complete denitrification, and these would benefit both nitrogen removal and N2O mitigation. The step feed strategy could be applied to enhance the better utilization of influent organic carbon for nitrogen removal. Dissolved oxygen (DO) and aerobic duration both affected nitrogen removal in particular that via nitrite in the intermittent aeration process. Nitrite should be removed efficiently to avoid a high N2O emission under both anoxic and aerobic conditions. Intermittent aeration activated sludge process has been applied in the treatment of various wastewaters, such as municipal wastewater, swine wastewater, anaerobic effluents and landfill leachate. For practical application, DO, pH and oxidation–reduction potential could be used as indices for controlling nitrogen removal and N2O mitigation. Microbial ecology in the intermittent aeration activated sludge process should be specifically focused in future studies. 相似文献

Effect of dissolved oxygen concentration on sludge settleability 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Martins AM Heijnen JJ van Loosdrecht MC 《Applied microbiology and biotechnology》2003,62(5-6):586-593
This laboratory study presents a detailed evaluation of the effects of dissolved oxygen concentration and accumulation of storage polymers on sludge settleability in activated sludge systems with an aerobic selector. The oxygen and substrate availability regime were simulated in laboratory sequencing batch reactor systems. The experiments showed that low dissolved oxygen concentration (1.1 mg O2 l–1) had a strong negative effect on sludge settleability, leading to the proliferation of filamentous bacteria (Thiothrix spp., Type 021N and Type 1851). This negative effect was stronger at high chemical oxygen demand loading rate. This indicates that a compartmentalised (plug flow) aerobic contact tank, designed at short hydraulic residence time to guarantee a strong substrate gradient, with low dissolved oxygen concentration, might be worse for sludge settleability than an "overdesigned" completely mixed contact tank. Contrary to the general hypothesis, the maximum specific acetate uptake rate, poly--hydroxybutyrate production rate, and resistance to short starvation periods are similar in both poor- and well-settling sludge. The results of this study support our previous hypothesis on the importance of substrate gradients for the development of filamentous structures in biological flocs, from soluble organic substrate gradients to dissolved oxygen gradients in sludge flocs. 相似文献

Assessment of microbial parameters as indicators of viral contamination of aerosol from urban sewage treatment plants 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

In order to evaluate possible indicators of viral aerosol contamination in sewage treatment plants, a year-long study was carried out on the relationships between the presence of cytopathogenic viruses and the counts of total bacteria, faecal streptococci and somatic coliphages in samples collected at various distances from the aerosol source (aeration tank). The activated sludge plant studied proved to be a significant source of microbe-bearing aerosol with high levels of viral contamination. When the virus was found in sewage, it was also found in the air, at least in the sites closest to the aeration tank. With regard to the possibility of using the chosen parameters as markers of viral contamination, the total bacteria and faecal streptococci counts were generally positively correlated with viral presence, while coliphage counts yielded no analogous relationship. 相似文献

The understanding of the relationship between ammoniaoxidizing bacteria (AOB) communities in activated sludge and the operational treatment parameters supports the control of the treatment of ammonia-rich wastewater. The modifications of treatment parameters by alteration of the number and length of aerobic and anaerobic stages in the sequencing batch reactor (SBR) working cycle may influence the efficiency of ammonium oxidation and induce changes in the AOB community. Therefore, in the research, the impact of an SBR cycle mode with alternating aeration/ mixing conditions (7 h/1 h vs. 4 h/5.5 h) and volumetric exchange rate (n) on AOB abundance and diversity in activated sludge during the treatment of anaerobic sludge digester supernatant at limited oxygen concentration in the aeration stage (0.7 mg O2/l) was assessed. AOB diversity expressed by the Shannon-Wiener index (H') was determined by the cycle mode. At aeration/mixing stage lengths of 7 h/1 h, H' averaged 2.48 +/- 0.17, while at 4 h/ 5.5 h it was 2.35 +/- 0.16. At the given mode, AOB diversity decreased with increasing n. The cycle mode did not affect AOB abundance; however, a higher AOB abundance in activated sludge was promoted by decreasing the volumetric exchange rate. The sequences clustering with Nitrosospira sp. NpAV revealed the uniqueness of the AOB community and the simultaneously lower ability of adaptation of Nitrosospira sp. to the operational parameters applied in comparison with Nitrosomonas sp. 相似文献

An aeration tank/sedimentation tank system is considered for large variations of organic loading. In this case, it is important to take into account the variability of the characteristics describing the oxidation of activated sludge as well as its sedimentation. The minimum cost of the treatment system is also evaluated. 相似文献

Summary Laboratory scale activated sludge systems were operated under regimes of continuous or intermittent feeding of the waste water. Industrial waste waters from breweries, a dairy plant and a petro-chemical plant were investigated. The systems were started up with sludge from a municipal waste water plant or more often with sludges obtained from the corresponding industrial waste water treatment plants. It was found that intermittently fed systems produced sludges with better settleability characteristics than systems that were continuously supplemented with waste water. Our previous hypothesis that in intermittent systems floc forming bacteria become dominant as a result of higher substrate uptake rates was confirmed and may thus be extended to waste waters containing readily available substrates such as carbohydrates (brewery-and dairy waste water) or acids (petro-chemical waste water). Supplementation of brewery waste water with urea had a negative influence on sludge settleability, especially in continuously operated systems. 相似文献

Poor sludge settling was observed occasionally during the treatment of effluent from acrylonitrile and acrylates manufacturing plants using an extended aeration activated sludge process. Sludge settled excellently when suspended in water or a filtrate obtained by passing aeration tank supernatant through granular activated charcoal (GAC) column. A biofactor consisting of 52% lipid, 10% protein, and 11% carbohydrate was isolated from the supernatant obtained after removal of suspended solids from aeration tank wastewater. Addition of biofactor in water or GAC filtrate adversely affected the sludge settling. 相似文献
