Comparison of Partial and Complete Nitrification in SBR System for Use in Side Stream Processes
Use of low-cost biological methods for ammonia removal as partial nitrification has been attracted by many environmental engineering researchers in recent years.In this study the removal of ammonia in high concentration sewage based on both complete and partial nitrification with the different sub-c...

Ammonia concentration in synthetic wastewater was about 900 mg-N/L and fixed and varible volume of reactor was 3 and 6 liter respectively to create a suitable hydraulic retention time of 1.05-1.55 days in the different cases. The results of ammonia, nitrite and nitrate measurements by spectrophotometer have shown that it is possible to achieve partial nitrification by controlling temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen and having more sub-cycles.
