RESUMO
This research investigated the performance of an aerobic granular reactor treating biogas slurry from pig farm. Results indicated that the granular structure of aerobic sludge was not affected by the high pollution concentrationsin the biogas slurry. Although a low removal rate of phosphate was found in this study (about 16%±2%), organic matter and ammonia nitrogen showed stable removal and transformation in the granular system, and the effluent concentrations of those components were (267±81)mg·L-1 and(62±12)mg·L-1, respectively. In addition, the removal rate of sulfamethazine and tetracycline was 98%±2% and 65%±16%, respectively. During the process biogas slurry treatment, bacterial communities in the aerobic granular reactor remained stable, and Comamonadaceae was the dominant bacteria (relative abundance ofapproximately 16.66%).
