Zusammenfassung:A method and installation for treating wastewater containing ammonia includes feeding activated sludge from an aeration tank into a hydrocyclone. The sludge is separated into a specifically heavy fraction containing mostly anaerobic ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (anammox) and a specifically light fraction containing mostly aerobic oxidizing bacteria (AOB), which are returned to the aeration tank. The hydrocyclone includes a roughened inner wall surface for at least partially removing an organic or inorganic cover layer disposed on the anaerobic ammonium-oxidizing bacteria (anammox).
