Simultaneous Mixotrophic Nitrate Removal and Phosphorus Removal in a Sponge-Iron Denitrifying Filter
Due to stricter municipal wastewater discharge standards, there is an increased need for further treatment of nitrate in the secondary effluent of wastewater treatment plants. This is achieved through denitrification by the addition of external carbon sources, which leads to increased costs in wastewater treatment. The aim of this study was to examine the possibility of simultaneous removal of nitrate and phosphorus from simulated secondary effluent by employing a sponge-iron-based denitrifying filter at room temperature. The results indicate that at hydraulic retention times of over 2 h, more than 60% of the nitrate was reduced to ammonia and nitrite via iron-based abiotic nitrate reduction. However, sponge iron easily scaled after two months of operation. Therefore, a little glucose was added to the influent, resulting in a final COD/N ratio of 1:1. Mixotrophic nitrate reduction was observed, and the rust of sponge iron was successfully dissolved. Batch test results demonstrate that biological nitrate denitrification accounted for 70.0% of the total nitrate reduction. Additionally, high-efficiency phosphorus removal through the chemical reaction of released iron and phosphorus was achieved throughout the entire experiment, with removal efficiencies of more than 90% at hydraulic retention times of over 2 h. Moreover, high-throughput sequencing data show that the species diversity obviously increased after adding organic carbon, suggesting the coexistence of heterotrophic and autotrophic denitrifiers. Hence, the sponge-iron denitrifying filter has considerable prospects in the field of secondary effluent treatment and is likely to be the future direction of zero-valent iron application in sewage treatment.
