Worm predation is one of the promising techniques for sludge reduction with the advantage of high efficiency and eco-friendliness. In order to achieve high quality effluent and low sludge production simultaneously, worm reactor (WR) with an efficient wastewater treatment process (anaerobic-anoxic-oxic membrane bioreactor (A2O-MBR)) was coupled with an auxiliary phosphorus removal reactor (PRR) to establish an A2O-MBR-WR-PRR combined system. In A2O-MBR-WR-PRR, high quality effluent with 27.7 ± 9.3 mg/L COD, 13.0 ± 1.8 mg/L TN and 0.4 ± 0.2 mg/L TP was obtained, and the sludge yield was reduced by 49.8% compared with the conventional A2O-MBR. Besides, the roles of WR on the A2O-MBR-WR-PRR system were deeply investigated. In comparison with conventional A2O-MBR, the removal capacities of TN and TP in the wastewater treatment process were increased by 11.6% and 100.8% respectively. Further analysis suggested that in A2O-MBR sludge activities were improved and the functional bacteria were enriched due to the recirculation of non-consumed sludge from WR. Moreover, analysis of sludge reduction mechanisms revealed that WR led to the highest sludge reduction efficiency (41.7%) in the A2O-MBR-WR-PRR combined system. Meanwhile, energy uncoupling (2.3%), microbial community changes and lysis-cryptic growth (5.8%) were identified in A2O-MBR, which contributed to further sludge reduction. This study provided an efficient approach for practical application of worm predation for sludge reduction and wastewater treatment.

深入了解蜗杆反应器在厌氧-缺氧-氧化膜生物反应器(A 2 O-MBR)中的废水处理和污泥减少中的作用:性能和机理
蠕虫捕食是减少污泥的有前途的技术之一,它具有高效和生态友好的优势。为了同时获得高质量的废水和低污泥,将具有高效废水处理工艺的蜗杆反应器(WR)(厌氧-缺氧-氧化膜生物反应器(A 2 O-MBR))与辅助除磷反应器(PRR)结合使用),以建立一个A 2 O-MBR-WR-PRR组合系统。在A 2 O-MBR-WR-PRR中,获得了27.7±9.3 mg / L的COD,13.0±1.8 mg / L的TN和0.4±0.2 mg / L的TP的高质量废水,污泥产率降低了49.8%。与传统的A 2 O-MBR相比。此外,WR在A 2上的作用对O-MBR-WR-PRR系统进行了深入研究。与传统的A 2 O-MBR相比,废水处理过程中TN和TP的去除能力分别提高了11.6%和100.8%。进一步的分析表明,由于WR中未消耗的污泥的再循环,A 2 O-MBR污泥的活性得到改善,功能细菌得以富集。此外,对污泥减少机理的分析表明,在A 2 O-MBR-WR-PRR组合系统中,WR导致最高的污泥减少效率(41.7%)。同时,在A 2中鉴定出能量解偶联(2.3%),微生物群落变化和裂解隐性生长(5.8%)。O-MBR,有助于进一步减少污泥。该研究为蠕虫捕食减少污泥和废水处理提供了一种有效的方法。
