The effect of C/N ratio on nitrogen removal in a bioelectrochemical system.

Abstract:

:The effect of C/N ratios of 2, 2.7, and 3.5 on nitrogen removal in a bioelectrochemical system (BES) was investigated. Starch was used as a carbon source for the electrogenesis phenomenon we observed in a previous study. The results showed that an increased C/N ratio helped the BES to remove nitrate and depress nitrite accumulation but did not increase autotrophic denitrification. Nitrate and total nitrogen removal were increased from 0.69±0.02gm(-3)h(-1) to 1.09±0.16gm(-3)h(-1), and from 0.52±0.08gm(-3)h(-1) to 0.97±0.06gm(-3)h(-1), respectively, when the C/N ratio was increased from 2.0 to 3.5. However, the autotrophic denitrification ratio decreased from 72.74% to 50.23% with the same increase in the C/N ratio. High C/N ratios postponed the excretion of soluble microbial products and increased electrogenesis, but did not improve the anode transformation efficiency.
