    摘要: Methods of controlling a nitrification reaction in a biological nitrogen removal reactor to favor partial nitrification of ammonia to nitrite instead of complete oxidation of ammonia to nitrate are disclosed. In some embodiments, the methods include the following: maintaining a pH in the reactor within a range that promotes growth of ammonia oxidizing bacteria; maintaining a concentration of dissolved oxygen in the reactor within a range that limits the ammonia oxidizing bacteria from completing nitrification; selecting an operational solids retention time within a range suitable for maintaining increasing concentrations of the ammonia oxidizing bacteria in the reactor while reducing concentrations of nitrite oxidizing bacteria in the reactor; and increasing a concentration of free ammonia in the reactor thereby inhibiting growth of the nitrite oxidizing bacteria in the reactor.

    摘要: Systems and methods for evaluating the operating conditions in a biological nitrogen removal reactor using gene expression and abundance tracking are disclosed. In some embodiments, the systems and methods include the following: obtaining a sample from the reactor during continuous reactor operation; expressing predetermined nitrification, denitrification, and structural genes for ammonia oxidizing bacteria contained in the sample to develop a sample genetic profile of the ammonia oxidizing bacteria; obtaining a genetic profile of a second bacteria substantially similar to the ammonia oxidizing bacteria, wherein the second bacteria was grown in a reactor having substantially optimum operating conditions; and comparing the sample genetic profile to the genetic profile of the second bacteria.
