ABSTRACT:
Total removal of cellulose nitrate particles from a waste water stream is accomplished by a combination of chemical and biological treatments which result in an effluent having a greatly reduced concentration of nitrogen compounds and having an acceptable BOD. The first step in the process requires that the insoluble, non-biodegradable cellulose nitrate particles be chemically digested with alkali to produce soluble products. Following digestion, the waste stream is supplemented with domestic raw sewage and a microbially utilizable carbon source and the supplemented waste stream is subjected first to an anaerobic microbial denitrification treatment to eliminate the oxidized forms of nitrogen and then to an aerobic microbial treatment to reduce BOD and to oxidize reduced nitrogen compounds. The effluent therefrom is again supplemented with a microbially utilizable carbon source and subjected to a final anaerobic microbial denitrification to remove nitrates present in the waste water resulting from nitrification processes occurring during the aerobic treatment step.
