Abstract EN
Surface water environment in China was degraded rapidly in the last two decades, resulting in increasingly tighten criteria issued for municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs).
This paper reviewed the recent advances of process design and operational optimization for nutrients removal.
Three major processes, as anaerobic-anoxic-oxic (AAO) process, oxidation ditch (OD), and sequencing batch reactor (SBR) occupied 65% of WWTPs amounts and 54% of treatment volumes of China in 2006.
However conservative process designs and operational faults often impaired the process performances and energy efficiency.
Therefore, typical processes were modified, combined, and innovated to meet the requirements of the diverse influent characteristics and lower energy consumptions.
Furthermore, operational optimization techniques by modeling, simulation, and real-time control were also developed and applied in China to improve the process operation.
Although great efforts had been contributed to improve the WWTPs performances in China, attentions should be continuously paid to the introduction, instruction, and implementation of advanced techniques.
At last, the technical demands and appropriated techniques of WWTPs in China were briefly discussed.
