Treatment of petrochemical wastewater with low C/N by IFFAS-ESMBR integrated composite process by ZHAO Xuan, LIU Tao, YANG Meng, QIAO Sen

“…Under the applied voltage of -1.2 V, the average growth rate of transmembrane pressure difference(TMP) of CNT-PVDF composite hollow fiber membrane was only 2.5 kPa/d, and the PN/PS of sludge on the membrane surface decreased gradually, indicating that the degree of irreversible membrane fouling was mild. 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing showed that a large number of carbon and nitrogen removal functional bacteria, such as Rhodobacterales, Verrucomicrobiales, Anaerolineales and Xanthomonadales, were enriched in suspended sludge, membrane surface sludge and carrier surface sludge, which played a significant role in the degradation of organic matter and ammonia nitrogen in the reactor. …”
