| description abstract | In this study, a suspended growth sequencing batch reactor (SBR) and an attached cum suspended growth SBR were used to investigate the performance characteristics of nitrogen and phosphorus (NP) removal from municipal sewage. The effects of three controlling factors, namely batch loading rate, feed pattern (initial feed or step feed), and mixing/aeration ratio, on NP removal were investigated under nine different experimental conditions. Owing to a large number of possible combinations among the controlling factors and different experimental conditions, it is very difficult to enumerate all the available combinations experimentally. In view of this, the Taguchi method, a cost-effective technique for design of experiments, was exploited for estimating the optimal operating condition. This study also evaluated the difference between the suspended growth SBR and the attached cum suspended growth SBR.
