Abstract
Continuous flow reactors with time intermittent operational (TIO) mode and spatial intermittent operational (SIO) mode were operated to evaluate the effects of operational modes on the removal performances, the characteristics of granules and the dynamics of microbial communities in simultaneous nitrification, denitrification and phosphorus removal (SNDPR) granular system. The results showed that the removal efficiency of TP, TN were 81.3%, 86.7% under TIO mode, and 70.6%, 77.4% under SIO mode, respectively. Meanwhile, the PN and value of PN/PS in SIO were higher than those in TIO. Besides, results of high-throughput pyrosequencing illustrated that the combination of filamentous archaea (Methanothrix) and filamentous bacteria (Thiothrix) had resulted in the increase of EPS and SVI under SIO mode. Finally, functional bacterial and archaeal species, involving HMA, AMA, AOA, DPAOs etc., were identified to reveal the effects of operational modes on the mechanism of nutrients removal in granular SNDPR continuous-flow system.
