Abstract

Effluent from an anaerobic digestion system with an elutriated phased treatment(ADEPT, Anaeorbic Digestion Elutriated Phase Treatment) for piggery waste treatment using anaerobic ammonium oxidation(ANAMMOX) process was used as a substrate of partial nitrification reactor. In mesophilic condition($35^{\circ}C$), controlling parameters of nitrite accumulation were HRT, pH, free ammonia(FA) and hydroxylamine rather than dissolved oxygen. Bicarbonate alkalinity consumption ratio including bicarbonate stripping and buffering was 8.78 g $Alk._{comsumed}/g\;NH_4-N_{converted}$. In steady state for 1 day of HRT and $2.7{\sim}4.4mg/L$ of DO, $NO_2-N/NH_4-N$ ratio of partial nitrification effluent was about $1{\sim}3$, which was applicable to ANAMMOX reactor influent for the combined partial nitrification-ANAMMOX process.

세정단계를 거치는 혐기성 소화시스템(ADEPT, Anaeorbic Digestion Elutriated Phase Treatment)에서 돈사폐수를 처리한 유출수를 혐기성 암모늄 산화공정(ANAMMOX)에 적용하기 위하여 부분질산화 반응조의 기질로 사용하였다. 중온($35^{\circ}C$)에서 아질산성 질소를 축적하는 조절인자는 용존산소보다는 오히려 HRT, pH, 유리 암모니아(FA)였다. 중탄산의 스트립핑과 완충에 사용된 양을 포함한 중탄산알칼리도의 소모량은 전환된 $NH_4-N$ g당 8.78 g이었다. HRT 1일, DO 농도가 $2.7{\sim}4.4mg/L$의 안정상태에서 부분질산화 반응 유출수의 $NO_2-N/NH_4-N$ 비는 약 $1{\sim}$으로서, 부분질산화-혐기성 암모늄산화 결합공정의 ANAMMOX 반응조의 유입수로서 적합하였다.
