Respirometric estimation of the oxygen affinity constants for biological ammonium and nitrite oxidation

Abstract: The nitrification process (ie biological ammonium oxidation to nitrate) is a two-step process with nitrite as an intermediate product. As it is an aerobic process, its kinetics is highly dependent on the dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration in the medium. However, the influence of this limitation on the nitritation (first step) is shown to be less important than in the nitratation (second step). This dependence on DO concentration is generally described using a Monod-type kinetics with K O as the oxygen affinit… Show more

“…In addition, the CPNA process with the biofilm system is also an exception since the biofilm can sustain microorganisms with very different growth kinetics [18], thus it is difficult to selectively wash out the NOB from the CPNA process. Another approach for dealing with the problem of NOB was to reduce the oxygen supply which favored the growth of ammonium oxidizing bacteria (AOB) [19], but results showed that there was no significant selective advantage for AOB in the CPNA process when the dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations decreased to as low as 0.2 mg L −1 [13]. Though intermittent aeration could restore the partial nitritation based on the concept that the NOB needed a longer lag phase after transition from anoxic to aerobic phases to fully ramp up their metabolism under aerobic conditions [20], however, it still took long period (6 months) to successfully suppress the NOB growth [13].…”

“…Existen estudios que determinan que las bacterias amonioxidantes tienen una menor afinidad por el oxígeno que las bacterias nitritoxidantes (Hellinga et al, 1998;Pérez, 2004) y otros, que por el contrario, proponen una constante de afinidad mayor para las nitritoxidantes (Wiesmann, 1994;Pirsing, 1996;Guisasola et al, 2005;Ciudad et al, 2006). Pero hay que tener también en cuenta que elevadas concentraciones de oxígeno pueden llegar a tener un efecto inhibidor.…”
