A model describing the simultaneous removal of
NO3- and HS- by microorganisms is presented here. The
oxidation of HS- (electron donor) can be controlled by
the appropriate dosage of NO3-. The developed model,
which includes variable process stoichiometry, attempts
to predict the distribution of sulfur oxidation products.
Stoichiometric coefficients are based on a 150 days
experimental study of temperature (25-10 ?C) and N/S
ratio (0.35-1.30) effects. The model can be used as a
prediction tool for autotrophic denitrification with HS-.
Elemental sulfur production is included in the
mathematical model, however, its accumulation and
release (as SO42-) with increasing feed N/S ratio (e.g.
leading to higher effluent than feed total sulfur mass at
N/S = 1.30) is not simulated. A conceptual model to
account for biological accumulation and release of
elemental sulfur is proposed here.
