Partial denitrification coupled with anammox is a promising nitrogen removal process for carbon-limited wastewater with cost-effective, but long start-up time limited its development in mainstream.
To figure out the acetate utilization species in mixotrophic anammox system and give an evidence for organotrophic metabolism of anammox bacteria via 16s rRNA gene sequencing.
Nitrogen-rich hypersaline wastewater was treated using the MAB-driven anammox process for the first time. The microbial community shift of MAB-based consortia was investigated.
