ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a closed sulfur circulation wastewater treatment system, which combines autotrophic and heterotrophic denitrification to recycle sulfates. Particularly, the present invention provides a process and a system for wastewater treatment which effectively process wastewater having both high nitrates and low organic carbonaceous sources, and effectively reduce sulfates by-products.
