Struvite formation associated with the microalgae biofilm matrix of a rotating algal biofilm reactor (RABR) during nutrient removal from municipal wastewater

Struvite was observed within the microalgae biofilm matrix of an outdoor, pilot-scale rotating algal biofilm reactor (RABR) designed to remove nitrogen and phosphorus from municipal anaerobic digester filtrate. The bottom layer of cells (2.5-month growth) and two top layers of cells (1-week and 2.5-...

520 |a Struvite was observed within the microalgae biofilm matrix of an outdoor, pilot-scale rotating algal biofilm reactor (RABR) designed to remove nitrogen and phosphorus from municipal anaerobic digester filtrate. The bottom layer of cells (2.5-month growth) and two top layers of cells (1-week and 2.5-month growth) were evaluated on east- and west-facing sides of the RABR. Sun orientation and shading effects of upper biofilm layers impacted the species composition and microalgae content of the bottom biofilm layers. Struvite formed within the microalgae biofilm matrix, and a higher struvite content appeared to be correlated with a higher microalgae content. The highest struvite content (expressed as %wt. of total solids) was observed in the east- and west-facing bottom layers of growth and west-facing 1-week growth (5.0%, 4.3%, and 4.1%, respectively). The lowest struvite content was observed in east- and west-facing 2.5-month growth and east-facing 1-week growth (1.1%, 1.5%, and 1.1%, respectively). Despite RABR influent component ion molar ratios with potential for various magnesium and calcium precipitates, microalgae biofilm provided pH and nucleation sites favorable to struvite precipitation. This evaluation is the first in the refereed literature the authors are aware of that reports on the association of struvite formation in the presence of a microalgae biofilm
