Description
Summary:N2O (Nitrous oxide) is a strong greenhouse gas, and wastewater treatment process is one of the important artificial sources of N2O. Controlling N2O production and discharge in wastewater treatment process is beneficial to alleviate the greenhouse effect. Based on the mechanism of N2O production in biological nitrogen removal process, emission characteristics and influencing factors of N2O in three traditional biological nitrogen removal processes, A/A/O, SBR and oxidation ditch, and two new biological nitrogen removal processes, SBBR and CANON, have been reviewed. Furthermore, a control strategy for slowing the generation and release of N2O is proposed, which provides a reference for researchers in related field.
