Abstract
⺠Furnace slag and marble chips raised pH to enhance nitritation-anammox in biofilters. ⺠Ammonium oxidizing and anammox bacteria accounted for 69-74% of bacterial population. ⺠Ammonium removal rate was significantly higher at pH 8.1 than pH 7.6. ⺠Free ammonia concentration should be controlled to avoid inhibition to anammox. ⺠Temperature effects were superior to pH effects on simultaneous nitritation-anammox.
