A new method, ultraviolet (UV) technology, was utilized to immobilize activated sludge in poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) gel carriers. A number of characteristics of immobilized cells, such as water content, oxygen uptake rate, and protein content, were examined, and performance in batch culture for treating synthetic micro-polluted wastewater with different C/N ratios and different pH values was also investigated. The bioactivity of immobilized cells was maintained during immobilization and the cells showed high nitrification activity after 10-15 d acclimation. Ammonia removal increased with C/N ratio while TOC removal decreased with it. However, more than 85% of the ammonia nitrogen and 72% of the TOC could be reduced in 4-6 h in all cases. No obvious effects on nitrification were seen for pH shocks at pH 6, 7, 8 or 9, but a pH shock at pH 5 caused a 30% loss of nitrification efficiency. SEM images showed that the immobilization beads were highly porous and that immobilized nitrifiers dominated the surface and within the core of the gel beads. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.
