A bioreactor system with 30 packed gel envelopes was installed in a thermal power plant for the removal of nitrogen from ammonia-containing desulfurization wastewater. Each envelope consisted of double-sided plate gels containing Nitrosomonas europaea and Paracoccus denitrificans cells with an internal space in between for injecting an electron donor. The envelope can remove ammonia from wastewater in a single step. When the wastewater was continuously treated with the bioreactor system, it removed 95.0% of the total nitrogen in the inlet, and the total nitrogen concentration in the outlet was below 9.0 mg L−1. The maximum nitrogen removal rate was 6.0 g day−1 per square meter of the gel area. The maximum utilization efficiency of the injected ethanol for denitrification was 98.4%, and the total organic carbon concentration in the outflow was maintained at a low level. Since the bioreactor system could use the electron donor effectively, it was not necessary to use an additional aerobic tank to remove the electron donor and a settling tank to segregate the surplus sludge containing bacteria from wastewater. Our concept of using packed gel envelopes would be highly effective for constructing a simple and efficient nitrogen removal system capable of simultaneous nitrification and denitrification.
