Method for retaining ammonia nitrogen and removing antibiotics in biological treatment of livestock wastewater

Abstract

A method for retaining ammonia nitrogen and removing antibiotics in biological treatment of livestock wastewater is provided. A nitrification inhibitor is added into an aerobic bioreactor with a sludge age greater than or equal to 30 days to inhibit the activity of nitrifying bacteria. The nitrification inhibitor is preferably 2-chloro-6-(trichloromethyl)pyridine or allylthiourea. By adding a chemical agent capable of inhibiting the activity of nitrifying bacteria into the aerobic biological treatment unit for treating livestock and poultry farming wastewater, the occurrence of ammonia nitrogen nitrification is inhibited without sacrificing the degradation of COD and antibiotics by heterotrophic bacteria, so that the aims of retaining ammonia nitrogen while removing antibiotics are realized.
