To investigate the feasibility of a novel Nitritation and Denitrification for Simultaneous Nitrogen and Phosphorus Removal system, a 133-day experiment was conducted. The results showed that combining aerobic phosphorus release capacity with denitrification phosphorus uptake capacity was feasible to achieve N and P removal. The removal efficiencies of TN and TP in ND-SNPR system were 98.16 ± 1.75 % and 81.70 ± 8.03 %. In addition, the phosphorus removal pathway of the system was identified as biological phosphorus removal. It is worth noting that the aerobic phosphorus release phenomenon of the ND-SNPR system occurred simultaneously with the short-range nitrification reaction and PHA storage. Thauera played the main role in the removal of nitrogen and phosphorus in the system. The relative abundance of Ploy-P hydrolases, dominated by ppx and relA, increased significantly with the intensification of the aerobic phosphorus release performance. This study provides a new idea for N and P removal and a reference for shortening the path of N and P removal as well as the phenomenon of aerobic phosphorus release.

Water eutrophication has emerged as a pervasive ecological challenge worldwide. To realize the resource utilization of waste and nutrients, a novel rape straw-derived biochar-calcium alginate composite (M-CA-RBC) immobilized Pseudomonas sp. H6 was synthesized to simultaneously remove phosphate (PO) and ammonium (NH) from distillery wastewater.

Coastal sediments in semi-enclosed bays are particularly susceptible to contamination due to limited water circulation and ongoing contaminant input. In Masan Bay, a heavily impacted coastal area in Korea, sediment remediation is essential to alleviate the effects of organic enrichment and hypoxia. This study investigated the effectiveness of oyster shell capping as an in-situ remediation technique by assessing its impact on sediment environment, microbial communities, and macrobenthic fauna.

Agriculture intensification represents an essential strategy to ensure food security for the growing human population, but it also poses considerable environmental concerns. Climate change and associated projections of an increased frequency of extreme precipitation and runoff events may amplify nutrient dynamics along the watershed-lake continuum, and could further exacerbate the poor water quality conditions downstream. Identifying hotspot locations with higher propensity for sediment and nutrient export and designing effective mitigation measures at the source is more critical than ever.

This research investigates the behavior of key components within aerobic and anoxic bioreactors in Biological Nitrogen Removal (BNR) bioprocesses. A mathematical model based on the Modified Ludzack-Ettinger (MLE) configuration is proposed. The model comprises an ensemble of ten differential equations derived from mass balances in the MLE system, complemented with a set of biokinetic models.
