Two new parameters, the maximum specific uptake rate ( V sp m) and the maximal growth efficiency ( β ), are introduced to achieve uniformity for the comparison of nutrient uptake and growth efficiency between microalgae and macroalgae. T. subcordiformis possesses 3 times lower half saturation uptake constant, 4 times higher maximal growth rate and 20 times higher maximum specific uptake rate than U. pertusa, while U. pertusa possesses 4 times higher maximal growth efficiency than T. subcordiformis.展开更多

Although the EBPR performance of An-Ox SBR was higher by 11.3% than that of An-Ax SBR, specific phosphorus release rates in the An-Ax SBR （22.8 ± 3.5 mg P/（g VSS.hr）） and the An-Ox SBR （22.4 ± 4.8 mg P/（g VSS.hr）） were similar. Specific phosphorus uptake rates under anoxic and aerobic conditions were 26.3 ± 4.8 mg P/（g VSS.hr） （An-Ax SBR） and 25.6 ± 2.8 mg P/（g VSS.hr） （An-Ox SBR）, respectively, which were also similar. In addition, an analysis of relationship of poly-β-hydroxyalkanoates （PHA） synthesized under anaerobic conditions with phosphorous release （Preleased/PHAsynthesized） and of PHA utilized under anoxic and aerobic conditions with phosphorous uptake （Puptaked/PHAutilized） verified that biological activities of EBPR per unit biomass between DPAO and PAO were similar. An analysis of the specific denitrification rate of DPAO showed that NO3-N can be denitrified at a rate that does not substantially differ from that of an ordinary denitrifier without additional consumption of organic carbon when the PHA stored inside the cell under anaerobic conditions is sufficiently secured.展开更多
