The German design guideline A 131 “Design of single stage activated sludge plants” was amended in 1999. The main changes of the guideline from 1991 are outlined. The design procedure for plants with nitrogen and phosphorus removal is presented.

To meet two levels of nitrogen and phosphorus removal (effluent standards Ntot 20 and 10 mg/l and Ptot 2 and 1 mg/l respectively) various systems were compared in a desk study. After a cost estimate and an assessment f the advantages and drawbacks, the oxidation ditch with biological by pass phosphate removal turned out to be the best system.

This paper briefly summarizes the early work on phosphorus removal in activated sludge plants in the U.S.A. and observed that such removals only occurred in low SRT plants of the plug flow type and in the Phostrip plants, neither designed for full nitrification. The discovery of simultaneous nitrogen and phosphorus removal, as well as full-scale experiments are discussed. The Phoredox process was proposed utilizing internal recycling for the removal of nitrates and an anaerobic first stage in which the incoming feed is used to obtain the necessary anaerobic conditions, essential as a conditioning step for the uptake of phosphorus. Proposed mechanisms are discussed.

A novel oxidation ditch system using anaerobic tanks and innovative dual dissolved oxygen (DO) control technology is proposed for biological nitrogen and phosphorus removal from domestic sewage. A continuous bench-scale experiment running for more than 300 days was performed to evaluate the system. Monitoring and controlling the airflow and recirculation flow rate independently using DO values at two points along the ditch permitted maintenance of aerobic and anoxic zone ratios of around 0.30 and 0.50, respectively. The ability to optimize aerobic and anoxic zone ratios using the dual DO control technology meant that a total nitrogen removal efficiency of 83.2–92.9% could be maintained. This remarkable nitrogen removal performance minimized the nitrate recycle to anaerobic tanks inhibiting the phosphorus release. Hence, the total phosphorus removal efficiency was also improved and ranged within 72.6–88.0%. These results demonstrated that stabilization of the aerobic and anoxic zone ratio by dual DO control technology not only resulted in a marked improvement of nitrogen removal, but it also enhanced phosphorus removal.
