To initiate the domestic sewage aerobic granular sludge (AGS) process, the experiment is operated by intermittent influent-effluent aeration to reduce the concentration of nitrate and the inhibition of PAO, and realize granulation by phosphate precipitation and positive electricity particles generated during phosphorus removal. The sludge from a sewage treatment plant is inoculated into the SBR reactors R1, R2, R3, and R4, for durations of 30, 60, 90, and 120 min total anaerobic time. This was used to study the effect of anaerobic time on the aerobic granular sludge system in domestic sewage. The experiment shows that reactors R1, R2, R3, and R4 are started successfully with 56, 48, 39, and 35 days, respectively. After 105 days of the operation, the respective average particle sizes reached 750, 764, 791, and 650 μm. During the operational period, at the 43

SBR reactors R1 and R2 were used to inoculate activated sludge from a sewage treatment plant, and domestic sewage was used as the influent. The operation was carried out using a single and multiple influent-aeration operation strategy, respectively, and the particle size change and removal effect during the operation was studied. The results show that R1 and R2 successfully achieved sludge granulation after 56 days and 39 days of operation, respectively. The concentrations (mg·L

We report on and discuss the effects of intermittent starvation on the operation of the simultaneous partial nitrification, ANAMMOX, and denitrification (SNAD) process. The SNAD process was carried out in a sequencing batch reactor (SBR) at room temperature (22℃±3℃), and the intermittent starvation was achieved by periodically extending the hydraulic retention time (HRT) of the system. The results showed that after the operation of intermittent starvation, the NO

To explore the effects of biochar and straw application on soil carbon constitution and transformation, an incubation experiment was conducted to study the characteristics of the release of carbon dioxide,as well as the changes in microbial biomass carbon and organic carbon in soil after applying biochar or straw only, or biochar plus straw. The results showed that the straw mineralization rate of organic carbon in soil was 21.50% at 2% application level, which was much higher than that of biochar (8.09%). With the same addition amount of biochar and straw at 4% level for 200 days incubation, the soil organic carbon content was 24.40 and 17.40 g·kg
