1 Recommendations and Lessons Learned from the Startup of the First Two Full-Scale Sidestream Deammonification Processes in North America: DEMON and ANITA Mox Andrea Nifong, World Water Works (formerly HRSD) Stephanie Klaus, VT & HRSD
2 Key Points Training is key but only 2 champions need in depth training Control strategy for long term operation is stable and hands off AOB are the most sensitive bacteria in the process, AOB are limiting not anammox 25 C is a reasonable minimum temperature Long term shutdowns are possible 2
3 Sidestream Deammonification ~1% of Total Plant Influent Flow ~20-40% of the Total Plant TN load NH 4 Concentration between 900 1,500 mg/l Alkalinity/NH4 ratio Temperature C Alkalinity insufficient for complete nitrification Insufficient carbon for denitrification Influent Primary Clarifier Aerobic Secondary Clarifier Tertiary Deammonification Anaerobic Digestor Dewatering Centrate 3
4 Conventional Nitrification-Denitrification Autotrophic Bacteria Aerobic Environment 25% O 2 (energy) Nitratation 1 mol Nitrate (NO 3- ) 40% Carbon (BOD) Denitratation Heterotrophic Bacteria Anoxic Environment 1 mol Nitrite (NO 2- ) 1 mol Nitrite (NO 2- ) 60% Carbon (BOD) Nitritation Denitritation 75% O 2 (energy) ~100% Alkalinity 1 mol Ammonia (NH 3 / NH 4 + ) NITRIFICATION ½ mol Nitrogen Gas (N 2 ) DENITRIFICATION 4
5 Partial Nitritation + Anammox = Deammonification NH NO HCO H NO N CH 2 O 0.5 N H 2 O Autotrophic Bacteria Aerobic Environment 0.5 mol Nitrite (NO 2- ) Advantages: 63% reduction in oxygen demand (energy) Nearly 100% reduction in carbon demand 80% reduction in biomass production No additional alkalinity required 37% O 2 (energy) ~57% Alkalinity 1 mol Ammonia (NH 3 / NH 4 + ) Autotrophic Anoxic Environment ½ mol Nitrogen Gas (N 2 ) mol Nitrate (NO3 - ) 5
6 One-Step Sidestream Deammonification (with full-scale applications) Upflow Granular Sludge Paques ANAMMOX SBR DEMON MBBR ANITA Mox Deammon 6
7 Operation Objectives Target is 90% NH 4 Removal (80% TIN Removal) Target is 10-15% NO 3 Production Typical Guidelines: o Residual alkalinity mg/l as CaCO 3 o Residual NH 4 of mg/l o Nitrite concentration below mg/l 7

11 DEMON Control Strategy SBR configuration typically 6 or 8 hour cycle time Last hour of cycle - settle and decant During React Period multiple mini-cycles (10-30 mins): Aerate Mix/fill Mix Aeration: DO ~ mg/l (PID control or constant airflow) ph based aeration control 11
12 DEMON Control Strategy - Anammox Enrichment AOB/NOB/OHO/debris Continual enrichment of anammox Large excess of activity Provides stability Ability to Washout NOB if proliferation occurs Anammox returned to Process 12

25 DEMON ph-based Aeration Control Aeration time is based on a low ph setpoint Anoxic/Feed time based on a timer or high ph setpoint 25
26 Option 1: ANITA Mox Fixed DO or Airflow Setpoint DO (mg/l), Centrate Flow (m 3 /hr) ph ph DO Centrate Flow DO setpoint Time (min) 26

28 DEMON and ANITA Mox Both use a form ph-based Aeration Control Control modes: DEMON ph affects aeration time at controlled DO ANITA Mox ph affects DO concentration ph Probe minimal maintenance/calibration Use handheld/lab probe to verify Consistent ammonia load & removal = constant OUR 1 or 2 Lead Operators trained on ph Based aeration control 28
29 Alarms and Fail Safes Low ph = air shut off High DO = air and centrate feed shut off Low Level = air and centrate feed shut off Centrate Feed Pump Low Flow/Fail = air shut off High Level = centrate feed shutoff High/Low Temperature = alarm Cyclone Pump Low Pressure= shut off Manual Mode Alarm = alarm 29
30 Training Entire plant staff trained on basic understanding of process theory, process components, analysis requirements and controls Daily meetings during startup, tapering to weekly meeting. Participants included: Plant staff, R&D team, and vendor. 1-2 of the plant staff understand in depth theory, troubleshooting, and process control 30
31 Sampling/Analysis Sampling Frequency: Daily during startup tapering down to weekly Parameters: -On site: HACH test kit NH 3, NO 2, NO 3 -Lab data: Alk, scod, TSS, OP Training: 2 Lab Technicians Convenient Sample Ports 31
32 Sensor Management Instrument Calibration Frequency Maintenance ph Quarterly Max Weekly Cleaning DO Annual Weekly Cleaning/Air Blast Function Control Control Conductivity Annual No issue Monitoring Ammonia/Nitrate As needed compared to lab values Air Blast Monitoring 32
33 Specific Conductivity Specific conductivity represents the measure of all relevant ions For deammonification the most important are NH 4+, NO 2-, NO 3-, HCO 3 - Great monitoring tool 33

39 Shutdowns Shutdown for a week at a time with no significant change in operation strategy > 1 week requires a reduced load during startup AOB are the limiting factor Anammox are very robust (very slow decay rate) DEMON and ANITA Mox appear similar One month shutdown for DEMON = one month restart 39

41 Conclusions Complete ownership of the system starts with daily, then weekly performance discussions with two champions of the system Anammox are robust, all limiting issues have been caused by AOB ph control is simple and effective Sidestream deammonification is a proven technology Process is not plug & play, careful attention required during startup Thoughtful attention during normal operation; set point changes ~1-2X/week (assuming good EQ) Lessons learned from DEMON applied to ANITA Mox 41
