| Abstract | Sulphate-rich wastewaters can be generated due to (i) use of saline water as secondary-quality water for sanitation in urban environments (e.g. toilet flushing), (ii) discharge of industrial effluents, (iii) sea and brackish water infiltration into the sewage and (iv) use of chemicals, which contain sulphate, in drinking water production. In the presence of an electron donor and absence of oxygen or nitrate, sulphate can be reduced to sulphide. Sulphide can inhibit microbial processes in biological wastewater treatment systems. The objective of the present study was to assess the effects of sulphide concentration on the anaerobic and aerobic physiology of polyphosphate-accumulating organisms (PAOs). For this purpose, a PAO culture, dominated by Candidatus Accumulibacter phosphatis clade I (PAO I), was enriched in a sequencing batch reactor (SBR) fed with acetate and propionate. To assess the direct inhibition effects and their reversibility, a series of batch activity tests were conducted during and after the exposure of a PAO I culture to different sulphide concentrations. Sulphide affected each physiological process of PAO I in a different manner. At 189 mg TS-S/L, volatile fatty acid uptake was 55% slower and the phosphate release due to anaerobic maintenance increased from 8 to 18 mg PO4-P/g VSS/h. Up to 8 mg H2S-S/L, the decrease in aerobic phosphorus uptake rate was reversible (Ic60). At higher concentrations of sulphide, potassium (>16 mg H2S-S/L) and phosphate (>36 mg H2S-S/L) were released under aerobic conditions. Ammonia uptake, an indicator of microbial growth, was not observed at any sulphide concentration. This study provides new insights into the potential failure of enhanced biological phosphorus removal sewage plants receiving sulphate- or sulphide-rich wastewaters when sulphide concentrations exceed 8 mg H2S-S/L, as PAO I could be potentially inhibited. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
