Anaerobic Digestion Fundamentals

facilities (WRRFs). The primary objective of anaerobic digestion is to convert the microbiological cells and other solids generated during the treatment process to a stable end product. Other solids stabilization processes include aerobic digestion, composting, thermal drying, thermal oxidation, and alkaline stabilization.

Nitrification Ammonia Oxidation in Wastewater Treatment …

Thus, many domestic and industrial wastewater treatment plants are required to remove the ammonia before discharge of the treated water. As shown in the nitrification process equations, ammonia is first oxidized to nitrite ions, then the nitrite ions are oxidized to nitrate ions. Each oxidation is carried out by a different group of bacteria,

Do not underestimate the oxygen demand to oxidize the ammonia. Oxidizing 25 mg/l of ammonia is equivalent to an additional 115 mg/l of BOD loading. Be award that even if a plant is not ...

concentration of ammonia in secondary effluent can be reduced by nitrification. Tertiary treatment to remove nitrogen and phosphorus, so as to mini-mize nutrient enrichment of surface waters, is common; nitrogen is usually removed by nitrification followed by denitrification, and phosphorus is removed by microbial uptake or chemical precipitation.

What is the difference in BOD5-CBOD - Wastewater Elearning

chemical is added to kill the autotrophic bacteria so Nitrification is inhibited so that only the oxidation of COD occurs. The biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) test tries to closely model an aerobic wastewater treatment system and the natural aquatic ecosystem. It measures oxygen taken up by the bacteria during the oxidation of organic matter.

to form chloramines. The nitrification process is primarily accomplished by two groups of autotrophic nitrifying bacteria that can build organic molecules using energy obtained from inorganic sources, in this case ammonia or nitrite. In the first step of nitrification, ammonia-oxidizing bacteria oxidize ammonia to nitrite according to equation (1).
