Abstract
The study evaluated four of the advanced wastewater treatment technologies (MBR, 4-stage Bardenpho, MLE and SBR) for the removal of nitrogen and selected the best retrofit alternative to be used in modifying the design of the existing activated sludge process of South Septage Treatment Plant (South SpTP). Each process was assessed based on the following selection criteria: capital and operating costs, ease of operation, site footprint and efficiency in removing nitrogen (in TN). Each process was assessed based on the result of the evaluation, MLE process obtained the highest score and ranked first, therefore, it was determined to be the best recommendation. The results of the nitrogen removal design showed that the existing aeration tanks into two zones (aerobic and anoxic) was feasible.
