Denitrification of Nitrate Wastewater using Packed‐Bed Columns
Columnar packed‐bed (PB) reactors with a specific surface area of 127 m2/m3 were investigated in this study for treating nitrate wastewater. This study demonstrated that a single‐stage packed bed was able to achieve total nitrogen (TN) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiencies higher than 83 and 75%, respectively. The highest achievable TN and COD removal rates were 47.2 g N/m2·d and 158.0 g COD/m2·d, respectively. The substrate removal rate in the PB column was found to follow half‐order reaction kinetics, with a reaction coefficient, k, of 53.62 (mg/L)1/2/d. A dual‐stage PB system was capable of achieving TN and COD removal efficiencies greater than 99 and 98%, respectively. Effluent TN and COD concentrations less than 6.5 mg NO3¯‐N/L and 50.0 mg COD/L, respectively, were obtained when the dual PB system was used.
