Abstract:
In this study, a 100 m3/d MABR pilot plant was built. Through the actual municipal sewage treatment, the rationality of process design and system operation effect were explored, and the  MABR nitrogen removal contribution, oxygen mass transfer characteristics and correlation with environmental factors were analyzed. The results showed that: MABR could complete microbial film hanging within one month, and the reflux point in the process system was set at the back end of the MABR unit, and the internal and external reflux ratio was maintained at about 100%, which could avoid the dilution of influent ammonia nitrogen, thereby increasing the nitrification rate (NR) of MABR, and  enhancing the simultaneous nitrification and denitrification effect of the MABR unit; During operation, the nitrification rate of MABR reached (2.75±1.13) g N/(m2·d), and the nitrogen removal contribution of MABR unit accounted for 20.42%±7.97% of the total nitrogen removal amount. oxygen transfer efficiency (OTE) and oxygen transfer rate (OTR) reached 33.36%±10.75% and (10.85±2.88) g O2/(m2·d), respectively. It is proved that MABR has strong oxygen mass transfer property. Under the condition of short biochemical residence time (HRT=10.81 h), the effluent index was better than the Class A standard (TN<10 mg/L) of the local standard of Jiangsu province, “Pollutant Discharge Standard for Urban Sewage Treatment Plants” (DB 32/4440-2022).
