Abstract
CANDO is a new wastewater treatment process that removes and recovers renewable energy from nitrogen waste (ammonia). The process involves three steps: (1) NH 4 + oxidization to NO 2 -, (2) NO 2 - reduction to N 2 O, and (3) N 2 O conversion to N 2 with energy recovery by using N 2 O as an oxidant in biogas combustion. This work demonstrates steps (1) and (2) at the bench-scale treating synthetic and real anaerobic digester supernatant, and step (3) at full-scale on a biogas-fed internal combustion engine with N 2 O injection. Step (1) is demonstrated by a continuous flow partial nitrifying reactor that oxidizes >85% NH4+ to NO2- . Step (2) is demonstrated by a biological strategy based on use of selection pressures that favor microorganisms that store polydroxybutyrate (PHB), an intracellular polymer, then oxidize it with nitrite reduction to N2O.
