Effect of organic concentration on biological activity and nitrogen removal performance in an anammox biofilm system

The effects of different concentrations of organic matter on the biological activity and nitrogen removal performance of the anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) system was studied. The results showed that under the conditions of low influent total organic carbon (TOC ≤ 100 mg/L), the activity rat...
