Panammox. Autotrophic nitrogen removal from leachates
A biological process for nitrogen removal in high N nitrogen wastewaters with low O.M. contents
Definition
A two stage biological process. Partial Nitritation (PN) and Anammox (Amx)
How it works
Partial Nitritation (PN):
Oxidation of 57% NH4+ to NO2-
Anammox (Amx):
Anaerobic NH4+ oxidation
Electron acceptor: NO2-
Advantages:
-40% energy consumption
No need of external O.M.
