Partial nitritation using sequencing batch reactor with media inputted thereinto, and apparatus and system for shortcut nitrogen removal using same

1. An apparatus for removing nitrogen in sewage and/or wastewater, the apparatus comprising:

a pretreatment unit for removing solids or organic matters in influent sewage and/or wastewater;

a sludge treatment unit for receiving, thickening, and digesting the solids removed in the pretreatment unit to separate them into a dewatered cake and a supernatant liquid;

a sequencing batch biofilm reactor which receives sewage and/or wastewater that has passed through the pretreatment unit and adjusts a ratio of ammonia nitrogen and nitrite nitrogen in sewage and/or wastewater to a preset ratio;

an anammox reaction tank which receives sewage and/or wastewater that has passed through the sequencing batch biofilm reactor and removes ammonia nitrogen and nitrite nitrogen in sewage and/or wastewater with nitrogen gas; and

a control unit for controlling the sequencing batch biofilm reactor and performing controlling so that a supernatant liquid separated from the sludge treatment unit, not sewage and/or wastewater that has passed through the pretreatment unit, is flowed into the sequencing batch biofilm reactor when a concentration of nitrate nitrogen in the sequencing batch biofilm reactor is a preset concentration or more,

wherein the pretreatment unit removes solids or organic matters that are not required for nitrogen removal in the sequencing batch biofilm reactor and the anammox reaction tank,

the sequencing batch biofilm reactor discharges the entire amount of sewage and/or wastewater in the sequencing batch biofilm reactor to the anammox reaction tank when the concentrations of ammonia nitrogen and nitrite nitrogen in the flowed-in sewage and/or wastewater have a preset ratio, and

the sequencing batch biofilm reactor includes a carrier that allows ammonia-oxidizing bacteria to be selectively immobilized or attached to grow, and prevents the carrier from being discharged when the sewage and/or wastewater or supernatant liquid flowing into the inside of the sequencing batch biofilm reactor is discharged to the outside of the sequencing batch biofilm reactor.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the supernatant liquid has a free ammonia (FA) concentration within a preset range.

3. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the sequencing batch biofilm reactor discharges the entire amount of the sewage and/or wastewater flowed in reactor to the anammox reaction tank when the ratio of ammonia nitrogen and nitrite nitrogen in sewage and/or wastewater is adjusted to a preset ratio.

4. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the sequencing batch biofilm reactor contains a media for oxidizing nitrogen components by being moved, or fixed depending on an inflow of sewage and/or wastewater or supernatant liquid into the sequencing batch biofilm reactor.

5. The apparatus of claim 4 , wherein the media is a moving media that is up and down depending on the inflow of sewage and/or wastewater or supernatant liquid, a packed-type media immersed in the lower part of the sequencing batch biofilm reactor, or a fixed-type fibrous media having a space for air supply in the middle of the fixed-type fibrous media.

6. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the media is implemented with polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polystyrene (PS), or hydrogel in a case of the moving media, ceramic or clay in the case of the packed-type media, and polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polystyrene (PS), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), or polyvinylidene fluoride or polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) in the case of the fixed-type fibrous media.

7. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the sequencing batch biofilm reactor comprises an ammonia nitrogen sensor for sensing the concentration of ammonia nitrogen in the sequencing batch biofilm reactor.

8. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the sequencing batch biofilm reactor comprises a nitrate nitrogen sensor for sensing the concentration of nitrate nitrogen in the sequencing batch biofilm reactor.

9. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the sequencing batch biofilm reactor comprises a pH sensor for sensing the pH in the sequencing batch biofilm reactor.

10. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the sequencing batch biofilm reactor comprises a dissolved oxygen sensor for sensing the amount of dissolved oxygen in the sequencing batch biofilm reactor.

11. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the sequencing batch biofilm reactor comprises an outlet which allows the sewage and/or wastewater or supernatant liquid flowed into the inside of the sequencing batch biofilm reactor to be discharged to the outside thereof.

12. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the outlet comprises a screen having holes smaller than the carrier and thus prevents discharge of the carrier.

13. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the outlet is disposed in the lowest portion of the sequencing batch biofilm reactor.
