Description:
The aim of this work was to assess the efficacy for simultaneous enhanced removal of nitrogen and phosphorus including organics treating combined wastewater generated from a chemical laboratory using a bench-scale Intermittent Cyclic Process Bio-reactor (ICPBR). The performance efficacy indicated that the ICPBR system with solid retention time of 15 days achieved optimum efficiency with an overall removal of ammonia nitrogen (NH"4-N), phosphorus (PO"4-P), and chemical oxygen demand (COD) in the range, 83-92%, 74-93%, and 90-96%, respectively.
