THE DENITRIFYING BIOLOGICAL PHOSPHORUS REMOVAL PERFORMANCE IN ANAEROBIC/ANOXIC SEQUENCING BATCH REACTOR: THE EFFECT OF CARBON SOURCE
Abstract
In this study, the effect of carbon source on denitrifying biological phosphorus removal
performance in acetate and glucose fed two anaerobic/anoxic sequencinq batch reactor
(SBR) was investigated. Glucose and acetate were used as the substrates. In acetate and
glucose fed reactors, the COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) removal efficiencies were
91,90% and PO4-P removal efficiencies were 87,51% respectively. These results shows
that the phosphorus removal efficiency is lower in glucose fed reactor.
