Abstract in Portuguese
Este trabalho avaliou o desempenho de um sistema que combina os processos anaeróbio e aeróbio, para tratamento de esgoto sanitário, operado de modo contínuo sem e com recirculação da fase líquida. A combinação dos processos anaeróbio e aeróbio tem como objetivo aproveitar as vantagens de cada um, minimizando seus aspectos negativos. Foi utilizado um reator, em escala de bancada, de leito fixo e fluxo contínuo de escoamento ascendente com argila expandida e espuma de poliuretano como suportes de imobilização da biomassa. O desempenho do sistema foi avaliado em três diferentes tempos de detenção hidráulica (TDH), 6, 8 e 10 horas, na fase anaeróbia, nos quais os melhores valores de remoção de matéria orgânica chegaram a 80%, com valores de DQO efluente abaixo de 150 mg/L. Com a inserção da fase aeróbia ao sistema (TDH de aproximadamente 11 horas, sendo 8 horas para a fase anaeróbia e 3 horas para a fase aeróbia), a eficiência subiu para mais de 90% com DQO efluente abaixo dos 50 mg/L. A nitrificação ocorreu perto do 15° dia operacional do sistema combinado e estava praticamente estável ao fim dessa etapa operacional. Após o 20º dia de operação as concentrações de nitrito mantiveram-se sempre baixas, o que indica equilíbrio da nitrificação. Foram obtidos ganhos quando feita recirculação do efluente tratado, principalmente em relação à remoção de matéria orgânica (95%) e remoção de nitrogênio total que foi de 75% para razão de recirculação de 1,5. O reator avaliado apresentou estabilidade operacional, alta remoção de matéria orgânica e nitrogênio sem a necessidade de adição de fonte exógena de carbono e de suplementação de alcalinidade.

Abstract in English
This work evaluated the performance of a system that combines anaerobic and aerobic processes, for treatment of domestic sewage. The bench-scale fixed-film reactor was operated in a continuous way without and with recycle of the liquid phase. Expanded clay and polyurethane foam were used as supports for immobilization of the biomass. Initially, the system was operated under anaerobic condition and its performance was evaluated for three different hydraulic retention times (HRT), 6, 8 and 10 h. In this phase, COD removal efficiency of 80% was reached for HRT of 10 h, with effluent COD below 150 mgCOD/L. The combined anaerobic-aerobic operation (HRT of approximately 11 h, being 8 h for the anaerobic phase and 3 h for the aerobic phase) favored the organic matter removal that reached 90%, with effluent COD below 50 mgCOD/L. The operation with liquid recycle provided the best results with COD removal of 95% and total nitrogen removal of 75% under recycle ratio of 1.5. The anaerobic-aerobic fixed bed reactor, with recycle of the liquid phase, proved to be an excellent alternative for domestic sewage treatment, mainly when organic matter and nitrogen removals are required. The concomitant C and N removal without addition of exogenous source electron donor and with no additional alkalinity supplementation was the main advantage of this reactor over the conventional reactors applied for this purpose.
