Zusammenfassung: | This study operated a pilot reactor, installed in a real municipal wastewater treatment plant. The reactor featured a packed fixed bed made of Biobob[R], a high-density polyethylene structure with expanded polyurethane, with a total volume of 5.65[m.sup.3] and an effective volume of 3.20[m.sup.3], operating under upflow conditions. The reactor objective was the removal of Total Nitrogen through Simultaneous Nitrification and Denitrification, as well as COD removal. The reactor operated with intermittent aeration and HRT of 10, 12, and 20 hours. The feed consisted of substrates in ratios of 1:1 (v:v) raw sewage/UASB effluent and UASB effluent. The reactor withstood the variations in load at the WWTP, facing common challenges of large-scale systems. The E2 stage - raw sewage:UASB - stood out with an average N removal of 55% and an average COD removal of 81%. SEM images demonstrated synergy between nitrifying bacteria, denitrifying bacteria, and methanogenic archaea. KEYWORDS: Simultaneous Nitrification and Denitrification, Intermittent Aeration, Removal of Organic Matter. Este trabalho operou um reator piloto, instalado em uma estação de tratamento de esgoto sanitário real. O reator contou com leito fixo empacotado de Biobob[R], estrutura em polietileno de alta densidade com poliuretano expandido, volume total de 5,65[m.sup.3] e útil de 3,20[m.sup.3] e fluxo ascendente. O objetivo do reator foi a remoção de Nitrogênio Total via Nitrificação e Desnitrificação Simultânea e remoção de DQO. O reator operou com aeração intermitente e TDH de 10, 12 e 20h, a alimentação ocorreu com substratos nas razões 1:1 (v:v) esgoto bruto/efluente de UASB; e efluente do UASB. O reator suportou as variações de carga da ETE, adversidades comuns de sistemas em larga escala. A etapa E2 - alimentação bruto:UASB, se destacou com média de remoção de N de 55% e remoção média de DQO em 81%. As imagens obtidas por MEV demonstraram que houve sinergia entre bactérias nitrificantes, desnitrificantes e arqueas metanogênicas. Palavras-chave: Nitrificação e Desnitrificação Simultânea, Aeração Intermitente, Remoção de Matéria Orgânica. |
