摘要
This work investigated simultaneous removal of sulfur and nitrogen compounds under micro oxygen. Different ranges of dissolved oxygen(DO) concentration were used, from 0.05-0.10, 0.10-0.15, 0.15-0.20, 0.20-0.25 and 0.25-0.30 mg/L, to study the effect of DO on specific microbial activities and their metabolic products. The results indicated that the optimal DO concentration was 0.10-0.15 mg/L. This condition provided removal efficiency of SO_4~(2-)-S and NH_4~+-N at 71.2% and 62.8%, respectively. In addition, S~0 and N_2 gas were the required end products for this study. The yield of S~0 and N_2 was 0.63 g-S~0 produced/g-SO_4~(2-)-S added and 0.57 g-N_2 produced/g-NH_4~+-N added, respectively. Activities of sulfate reducing bacteria(SRB), sulfide oxidizing bacteria(SOB), nitrifier and denitrifier were 0.098, 0.361, 0.080 and 0.169 g-substrate consumed/g-VSS/d, respectively. At the lowest DO of 0.05-0.10 mg/L, nitrifier was inhibited, leading to decreasing NH4+-N removal efficiency and N_2 yield. However, sulfate removal and S~0 yield slightly increased. When DO concentrations reached 0.15-0.30 mg/L, sulfate removal efficiency and S~0 yields decreased significantly. In addition, SRB activity was inhibited significantly while activity of SOB was not significantly different. In contrast, the activity of nitrifier was enhanced by increasing oxygen to peak removal of ammonium. However, N_2 gas production was increased slightly because nitrate reduction to N_2 was inhibited at high DO concentrations.
