A high-rate and stable nitrogen removal from reject water in a full-scale two-stage AMX® system

This paper reports long-term performance of a two-stage AMX® system with a capacity of 70 m3/d treating actual reject water. An air-lift granulation reactor performed partial nitritation (PN–AGR) at an average nitrogen loading rate (NLR) of 3.1 kgN/m3-d, producing an average effluent NO2-–N/NH4+–N r...
