[Effects of external carbon source on nitrogen and phosphorus removal in subsurface flow and free water surface integrated constructed wetland].
By adding municipal wastewater in effluent of ANOXIC-OXIC (A/O) reactor as external carbon source, effects of external carbon source on nitrogen and phosphorus removal in subsurface flow and free water surface integrated constructed wetland were studied in pilot-scale. Results indicate that, COD/TN and (NO2(-) + NO3(-))/TN in influent of wetland are 1.00 and 0.48, respectively, and load removal rates of COD, TN and TP are 1.82, 1.59 and 0.14 g (m2 x d)(-1), respectively, as directly treating effluent of A/O reactor in wetland (working condition I). COD/TN and (NO2(-) + NO3(-))/TN in influent of wetland are 3.55 and 0.44, respectively, and load removal rates of COD, TN and TP are 19.03, 5.42 and 0.29 g (m2 x d)(-1), respectively, as adding municipal wastewater in effluent of A/O reactor as external carbon source in wetland (working condition II). Compared with working condition I, load removal rates of TN and TP for working condition II increase 3.4 times and 2.1 times, respectively. Impact factors of load removal rate of TN and TP are water temperature, HRT, COD/TN and (NO2(-) + NO3(-))/TN, respectively, when ranges of influent load rates are 3.8 - 38.7 g x (m2 x d)(-1) for COD, 5.07 - 13.08 g x (m2 x d)(-1) for TN and 0.57 - 1.92 g x (m2 x d)(-1) for TP, respectively, and range of HRT is 0.5 - 1.0 d. TN load removal rate decreases by exponent function along with increase of HRT, linearly increases along with increase of water temperature and (NO2(-) + NO3(-))/TN, and increases by power function along with increase of COD/TN. TP load removal rate also increases by power function along with increase of COD/TN.
