查看更多>>摘要：The aim of this study is to investigate the anaerobic treatability and generation of potential valuable by-products of agro-food industry wastewaters where bulgur production is carried out.Among the agro-food products,bulgur which is a wheat product(Triticum spp.)and rich in fibers,is one of the ancient foods of Anatolia.The most critical issue in bulgur production is high energy and water consumption for cooking where wheat starch gelatinizes and results in a considerable amount of high strength wastewater.In the raw bulgur wastewater sample,81％of total chemical oxygen demand(tCOD)was in soluble form which was readily fermentable and acidic by nature.Batch anaerobic study results indicated almost complete tCOD removal(99％)which decreased from 7820 to 100 mg/L.The cumulative methane yield was determined as 275 mL/g tCODfed.Hence,for such industrial wastewaters with high level of organic pollution,anaerobic biotechnology stands out as one of the most effective treatment options.Fermented bulgur wastewater was also tested for the produc-tion of polyhydroxyalkanoates(PHAs).It was determined that 37％of the tCOD could be recovered as PHAs without hindering the biogas generation.In this context,it was shown that PHAs and biogas production could be simultaneously achievable with a smart organic carbon utilization strategy which will also contribute to reduce energy requirement and carbon footprint of the industrial bulgur production process as well as create environmentally friendly solutions through resource recovery.
查看更多>>摘要：In this study,an anaerobic membrane bioreactor coupled with a complete nitrification and partial denitrification-anammox process(AnMBR-NF-PDA)was developed to efficiently remove both chemical oxygen demand(COD)and nitrogen.Precise control of raw water ratios was utilized to adjust the ratio of COD/NO3--N,resulting in maximum nitrogen removal efficiency of 90.14％at a ratio of 3.44.Initially,specific anammox activity(SAA)increased with the proportion of raw water,peaking at 17.83 mg-N/(g-VSS·d)in stage Ⅱ before decreasing.This variation was attributed to the significant presence of filamentous bacteria,especially"Acinetobacter"(13.58％-31.59％),which facilitated nitrite generation,supporting the nitrous oxide hypothesis in partial denitrification processes and enabling cross-feeding with AnAOB.Additionally,the average particle size of granular sludge increased from 300 to 528 pm under the influence of filamentous bacteria.Metagenomic analysis revealed an upsurge in genes associated with partial denitrification(NarG and NapA)as the COD/NO3-N ratio rose.The abundance of genes closely correlated with anammox(Hzs and Hdh)peaked during stage Ⅱ,indicating the beneficial role of filamentous bacteria in the stable conversion of nitrite in PDA system.This study offers valuable insights into optimizing the synergistic metabolism and granulation processes involving filamentous bacteria and AnAOB,thereby laying the groundwork for the practical application of AnMBR coupled with anammox processes in wastewater treatment.
