Design strategy for a simultaneous nitrification/denitrification of a slaughterhouse wastewater in a Sequencing Batch Reactor: ASM2d modeling and verification.
Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) was used to treat slaughterhouse wastewater which contains average Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) concentration of 5000 mg l(-1) and ammonium of 360 mgN l(-1). Nitrification/denitrification process was conducted for nitrogen removal. The influent wastewater as internal carbon source and sodium acetate as an external one was used for completing denitrification to achieve the simultaneous organic matter removal (95-96%) and nitrogen removal (95-97%). In addition, the dynamic SBR simulation model for biological nitrogen removal based on the Activated Sludge Model No. 2d (ASM2d) and GPS-X software is presented. The experimental study for the calibration and validation of the model was carried out using laboratory SBR. The study showed that the model provides a powerful tool to reduce the experimental expenditure and time to find the optimum strategy.
