[ORP in the Main Anoxic Stage as the Control Parameter for Nitrogen and Phosphorus Removal in the Single Sludge System with a Continuous Flow].
To optimize the performance of nitrogen and phosphorus removal, based on test results and mass balance, the feasibility of control for nitrogen and phosphorus removal in the single sludge system with a continuous flow using ORP in the main anoxic stage (ORPm) was investigated, meanwhile, the objective laws of conversion for nitrogen and phosphorus under different ORPm were expounded. During the experiments, nitration liquid internal circulation flow rate was controlled as the variable. The OPRm was controlled by PLC automatically, and the other operation parameters remained unchanged. The experiments tested six different ORPs in main anoxic stage affecting nitrogen and phosphorus removal, i.e., -143, -123, -105, -95, -72, and -57 mV. The ammonia concentration changed a little in effluent under the condition of different ORP.s, however, the TN and TP concentrations changed obviously. When the ORPm was controlled as -95 mV, the active sludge reached the maximal nitrogen and phosphorus removal with the continuous flow. According to mass balance calculation, when ORPm increased from -143 mV to -57 mV, (1) In the main anoxic stage, nitrate nitrogen reaction rates were 214. 40, 235. 16, 241. 16, 244. 02, 240. 90 and 233. 65 mg.h-1, respectively; the amount of total nitrogen conversions were 244. 92, 255. 85, 328. 04, 347. 45, 336. 42 and 320. 60 mg.h-1, respectively; both reaction rates reached the peak at the ORPm of -95 mV; (2)Phosphorus release rates in anaerobic stage were -214. 12, -228. 64, -259. 26, -264.54, -256.92 and -252.84 mg.h-1, respectively; total phosphorus absorption rates were 252. 15, 275.85, 332. 25, 338. 10, 336. 15 and 324. 30 mg.h-1, respectively, and phosphorus absorption rates were 30. 27, 62. 14, 124. 58, 154. 41, 150. 41 and 138. 30 mg.h-1, respectively, in the main anoxic stage; phosphorus absorption rates reached the peak when ORPm was -95 mV. The experiments revealed that ORPm could be used as the control parameter of nitrogen and phosphorus removal in single sludge system with a continuous flow.
