To meet two levels of nitrogen and phosphorus removal (effluent standards Ntot 20 and 10 mg/l and Ptot 2 and 1 mg/l respectively) various systems were compared in a desk study. After a cost estimate and an assessment f the advantages and drawbacks, the oxidation ditch with biological by pass phosphate removal turned out to be the best system.

A novel oxidation ditch system using anaerobic tanks and innovative dual dissolved oxygen (DO) control technology is proposed for biological nitrogen and phosphorus removal from domestic sewage. A continuous bench-scale experiment running for more than 300 days was performed to evaluate the system. Monitoring and controlling the airflow and recirculation flow rate independently using DO values at two points along the ditch permitted maintenance of aerobic and anoxic zone ratios of around 0.30 and 0.50, respectively. The ability to optimize aerobic and anoxic zone ratios using the dual DO control technology meant that a total nitrogen removal efficiency of 83.2–92.9% could be maintained. This remarkable nitrogen removal performance minimized the nitrate recycle to anaerobic tanks inhibiting the phosphorus release. Hence, the total phosphorus removal efficiency was also improved and ranged within 72.6–88.0%. These results demonstrated that stabilization of the aerobic and anoxic zone ratio by dual DO control technology not only resulted in a marked improvement of nitrogen removal, but it also enhanced phosphorus removal.

An updated biological nitrogen and phosphorus removal process - BICT (Bi-Cyclic Two-Phase) biological process - is proposed and investigated. It is aimed to provide a process configuration and operation mode that has facility and good potential for optimizing operation conditions, especially for enhancing the stability and reliability of the biological nutrient removal process. The proposed system consists of an attached-growth reactor for growing autotrophic nitrifying bacteria, a set of suspended-growth sequencing batch reactors for growing heterotrophic organisms, an anaerobic biological selector and a clarifier. In this paper, the fundamental concept and operation principles of BICT process are described, and the overall performances, major operation parameters and the factors influencing COD, nitrogen and phosphorus removal in the process are also discussed based on the results of extensive laboratory experiments. According to the experimental results with municipal sewage and synthetic wastewater, the process has strong and stable capability for COD removal. Under well controlled conditions, the removal rate of TN can reach over 80% and TP over 90% respectively, and the effluent concentrations of TN and TP can be controlled below 15 mg/L and 1.0 mg/L respectively for municipal wastewater. The improved phosphorus removal has been reached at short SRT, and the recycling flow rate of supernatant between the main reactors and attached-growth reactor is one of the key factors controlling the effect of nitrogen removal.

Based on a modified Carrousel oxidation ditch process acclimated with synthetic wastewater,effect of SRT on nitrogen and phosphorus removal occurred in the system was investigated. The results indicated that SRT was prominent to nitrogen and phosphorus removal. The removal efficiency of nitrogen was better with SRT extension and that the removal efficiency of phosphorus was better with SRT shortness. With the operation conditions of water temperature 30°C, SRT 11days, the removal efficiency of TN and TP reached 85.4% and 74.9%, which indicated that nitrogen and phosphorus removals were best.

Nitrogen and phosphorus are the nutrients induced eutrophication, therefore the removal of nitrogen and phosphorus is the main target of domestic wastewater treatment. In order to achieve better nutrient removal effect with lower construction and operation cost, a new nitrogen and phosphorus removal process was developed based on simulation. New process named MUST was developed by mixing UCT and step-feed BNR technology together, and possessed the advantages of two processes. The results of simulation show that MUST can achieve similar treating effect with 20% shorter hydraulic retention time (HRT) compared with UCT process. The influent splitting ratio of 4:3:3 was recommended for MUST operation. A pilot experiment of MUST was also carried out according to simulation results, and achieved very good pollutant remove effect, the average COD, NH4+-N, TN, TP removal efficiency were 85.4%, 94.0%, 65.1%, 62.3% respectively under the condition of low influent COD/TN ratio. Considering the excellent pollutant removal capacity of MUST, an upgrade project chose it as wastewater treatment process. This paper just starts the research of MUST, further study is necessary and valuable.

Higher nitrogen and phosphorus in the water cause water eutrophication. Nitrogen and phosphorus removal are the primary methods of solving water eutrophication. This paper analyzed the development and key technology from Triple oxidation ditch, UNITANK process to MSBR process for the object of nitrogen and phosphorus removal.
