Analysis of nitrification efficiency and microbial community in a membrane bioreactor fed with low COD/N-ratio wastewater.

In this study, an approach using influent COD/N ratio reduction was employed to improve process performance and nitrification efficiency in a membrane bioreactor (MBR). Besides sludge reduction, membrane fouling alleviation was observed during 330 d operation, which was attributed to the decreased p...
